PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Refitting the wheel
After positioning the wheel, lightly pre-tighten the bolts using the wheelbrace.
Compress the jack and release it.
Fully tighten the bolts using the wheelbrace.
Replace the trim except in the case of a space-saver spare wheel, starting at
the valve passage hole, and press it on using the palm of the hand.
Note: If the vehicle is fitted in production with a wheel anti-theft lock, the trim cap
on the anti-theft bolt is in two parts.
Replacing the wheel in the carrier
Replace the jack storage box in the wheel.
Replace the support spacer 3 by clipping it to the space-saving spare wheel.
Replace the wheel in the carrier directing the spacer 3 along the centre line of
the vehicle, with the opening towards the front as shown in the diagram above
(for a space-saving spare wheel only).
Lift the wheel then the carrier and reposition the hook.
Do not forget to fully tighten the spare wheel carrier retaining bolt.
Stow the wheelbrace.
For your safety, always
change a wheel:
on level, stable and non slippery
ground,
with the handbrake applied,
wiith first or reverse gear
engaged,
with the vehicle chocked using
the jack storage box,
never go underneath a vehicle
raised using a jack (use an axle
stand).
After changing the wheel
Have the tightening of the bolts
and the pressure of the spare
tyre checked as soon as possi-
ble by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Have the punctured tyre
repaired and replace it on the
vehicle as soon as possible.
The space-saver spare wheel
fitted with a 115/70R15 tyre
must only be used temporarily:
inflation pressure: 4.2 bars
(60 p.s.i.),
maximum speed: 80 km/h.
