Bodywork maintenance

– Allow rust to form following minor im-
pacts.
–

U
se solvents not approved by our
Technical Department to remove
stains as this could damage the
paintwork.
–

D
rive frequently in snow or muddy
conditions without washing the ve-
hicle, particularly under the wheel
arches and body.
–
mino
r impacts
You should take a minimum number of
precautions in order to safeguard your
vehicle against such risks and not to
lose the benefit of your vehicle’s anti-
corrosion protection.
What you should not do
– Degrease or clean mechanical com-
ponents (e.g. the engine compart-
ment), underneath the body, parts
with hinges (e.g. inside the fuel tank
flap) and painted plastic external
fittings (e.g. bumpers) using high-
pressure cleaning equipment or by
spraying on products not approved
by our Technical Department. If ade-
quate precautions are not taken, this
could give rise to corrosion or opera-
tional faults.
–

W
ash the vehicle in bright sunlight or
freezing temperatures.
–

S
crape off mud or dirt without
prewetting.
–

Allow
dirt to accumulate.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the exterior of the vehicle reg-
ularly.
protection against the effects
of corrosive agents
Although your vehicle has been treated
with very effective anti-corrosion prod-
ucts, it nevertheless remains subject to
the effects of:
–

corrosives in the atmosphere
–


a
tmospheric pollution (built-up
and industrial areas),
–

s
aline atmospheres (near the
sea, particularly in hot weather),
–

seasonal
and damp climatic con-
ditions, (e.g.: road salt in winter,
water from road cleaners, etc.).
–

abrasives
W

ind-borne dust and sand, mud,
road grit thrown up by other vehi-
cles, etc.

– Before going through a roller type car
wash, return the windscreen wiper
stalk to the Park position (refer to
the information on the “Windscreen
wash/wipe” in Section 1). Check the
mounting of external accessories,
additional lights and mirrors, and
ensure that the wiper blades are se-
cured with adhesive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your
vehicle is fitted with this equipment.
Remember to remove the tape and
refit the antenna after washing.

recommended by our Technical
Department (never use abrasive
products) and be sure to jet-rinse off:
–

s
pots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
–

b

chemical reaction with the paint
that rapidly discolours paint-

special note:
T he Tyre Pressure Monitor function
does not check the emergency spare
wheel (the wheel replaced by the emer-
gency spare wheel disappears from the
instrument panel display).
Refer to the information on the “Tyre
pressure monitor” in Section 2.In the event of a puncture,
depending on the vehicle,
you will have:
An emergency spare wheel or tyre in-
flation kit (refer to the information on the
following pages).
emergency spare wheel
This is located in the luggage compart-
ment. To access it:
–

open the tailgate;
–


d
epending on the vehicle, unscrew
the anchorage points;
–

f
old back the luggage compartment
carpet using tab

1
;
–

unscrew the central mounting;
–


remove
the emergency spare wheel.
If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is
safe to use.
Vehicles fitted with an emergency spare wheel smaller than the four other\
wheels:
–

Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same v
ehicle.
–

Repla
ce the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel with the same dimensions as the original.
–

When
this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measure, the driving speed must not exceed the speed
indicated on the label on the wheel.
–

Fitting
an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually runs. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when cornering.
–

If

you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rear axle and check the tyre pressure.

Tyre inflation kit
tyre Pressure KIt (1/3)
The kit is only approved for
inflating the tyres of the ve-
hicle originally equipped
with the kit.
It must never be used to inflate
the tyres of another vehicle, or any
other inflatable object (rubber ring,
rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when han-
dling the repair liquid bottle. If drop-
lets do leak out, rinse them off with
plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil-
dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle
in the countryside. Return it to your
approved dealer or to a recycling or-
ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service
life which is indicated on its label.
Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re-
place the inflation tube and repair
product bottle.

The kit repairs tyres when
tread A
has been dam-
aged by objects smaller
than 4 mm. It cannot repair
all types of puncture, such as cuts
larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre
sidewall

B
.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in
good condition.
Do not pull out the foreign body
causing the puncture if it is still in
the tyre.
Do not attempt to use the
inflation kit if the tyre has
been damaged as a result
of driving with a puncture.
You should therefore carefully check
the condition of the tyre sidewalls
before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or
punctured tyres can be dangerous
and may make the tyre impossible
to repair.
t

his repair is temporary
A tyre which has been punctured
should always be inspected (and re-
paired, where possible) as soon as
possible by a specialist.
When taking a tyre which has been
repaired using this kit to be replaced,
you must inform the specialist.
When driving, vibration may be felt
due to the presence of the repair
product injected into the tyre.

Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the kit located under-

Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must

risk of injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, only use these bolts for the emergency

If bolts are supplied with the emergency
spare wheel, only use these bolts for
the emergency spare wheel. Tighten
the bolts, checking that the wheel is
correctly positioned on its hub and
lower the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, tighten
the bolts fully and have the tightness
of the bolts checked (tightening torque:
110 N.m) and the emergency spare
wheel pressure checked as soon as
possible.

A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.
