Roof bars

For your safety and to avoid damage to the roof, you should use roof bars that are tested and approved by

AUTOMOBILES CITROËN for the design of your particular vehicle.

For your safety and to avoid damage to the roof, you should use roof bars that are tested and approved by

For your safety and to avoid damage to the roof, you should use roof bars that are tested and approved by

Recommendations:

Spread the load evenly, avoiding overloading on one side.

Position the heaviest weight as low down as possible.

Tie the load down securely and add warning signs if it is protruding.

Drive conservatively, as the vehicle will be more vulnerable to side winds.

The stability of your vehicle may be altered.

Remove the roof rack or roof bars when you are not using them.

When you are using a towbar, remove the jack from its stowage in the spare wheel. Keep the jack to hand in the

passenger compartment.

Never get underneath the vehicle if it is supported only by

the jack.

When changing a wheel, it is essential to park the vehicle

safely on level and stable ground.

Access to the tools

To access the toolkit:

Tilt the RH seat as if to enter

the rear of the vehicle,.

Locate the kit under the seat

and pull it towards the rear of

the vehicle.

The jack is stowed in a protection

box inside the spare wheel under-

neath the boot.

Tools

1. Wheelbrace.

2. Movable towing eye.

3. Central embellisher removing

tool for accessing the wheel

bolts (For vehicles with

aluminium wheel rims).

4. Tool for removing wheel bolt

protectors (For vehicles with

aluminium wheel rims).

5. Extension.

The alloy wheel anti- theft sockets

are to be found in the glovebox.

Light alloy wheels

If your vehicle has light alloy wheel

rims but a steel spare wheel, if you

fi t the latter it is normal to notice

that the wheel bolts do not appear

to contact on the rim.
The spare wheel is secured by the

conical tapering of the wheel bolt’s

shaft (See illustration).
when refi tting the light alloy wheel,

make sure that the tapering contact

faces of the wheel bolts are clean

and in good condition.

Remove the blank A with the aid of

the ignition key, to insert the exten-

sion for the wheelbrace.
Slacken the spare wheel carrier

screw.
Lift the carrier to release the

retaining hook, then disengage it.

To reposition the spare wheel

Having repositioned the jack and

its handle in its protection box in

the wheel, slide the wheel into the

carrier.
Lift the carrier to secure it in the

safety hook.
Retighten the screw from inside

the boot compartment.

Removal

1. Park the vehicle on stable, fi rm ground that is not slippery. Apply the

parking brake.

Switch off the ignition and engage fi rst gear or reverse gear, depending

on any slope.

Ensure that all vehicle occupants have left the vehicle and are

positioned in a safe place.

2. Position the jack at one of the four jacking-points provided on the

subframe close to the wheels. Using the handle, unwind the jack until it

reaches the ground.

3. To unclip the wheel embellisher, pull using the end of the wheelbrace as

a lever in one of the apertures.

For vehicles with aluminium wheel rims:

With a central embellisher, remove the embellisher, using the tool, to

access the bolts.

With visible wheel bolts, remove the chromed bolt protectors, using

the tool, before slackening the bolts.

4. Continue to extend the jack until the wheel is a few centimetres off the

ground.

5. Undo the other bolts, remove the wheel.

Refi tting

1. Fit the wheel on the hub, using the centring guide.

2. Screw in the bolts but do not fully tighten them, remove the wheel centring guide in order to screw in the last

bolt.

3. Lower the jack and remove it.

4. Tighten the wheel bolts, using the wheelbrace.

5. Refi t the embellisher, taking care to accommodate the tyre valve. Then pressing all round its circumference.

6. Have the original wheel repaired and refi tted as soon as possible.

7. Make sure that the tyre is at the correct pressure (see "Vehicle Identifi cation" and "User Precautions") and have

the wheel balancing checked.

Dimension of the spare wheel

If your spare wheel has dimensions different from those of the normal vehicle wheels (identifi ed by a label), it is

imperative to use the spare wheel only temporarily, to drive with caution, not to exceed 80 km/h (50 mph) and to have

the tyre repaired and the normal wheel refi tted as soon as possible.

V

121

Because the aerosol is pressurised, do not expose it to

temperatures higher than 50 °C.

After provisionally repairing a tyre using the repair aerosol,

you are advised not to drive at over 80 km/h.

If your vehicle has no spare

wheel, a repair aerosol is to be

found in the boot.

Using the repair aerosol

See also the user instructions on

the aerosol.

Remove, if possible, the object

which has caused the puncture.

Orient the wheel so that the

valve is at ten o’clock or two

o’clock.

Shake the aerosol vigorously

(in cold weather warm it in your

hands for a few minutes).

With one hand hold the valve

connector clear of the rim hole,

with the other hand press the

end of the aerosol nozzle fi rmly

onto the connector, keeping it

in the line of the valve.

Firmly maintain the pressure

for one minute.

Rapidly remove the aerosol

and immediately drive for

around six miles.

Reinfl ate the tyre and check its

condition after some ten hours.

After using the repair aerosol,

you should have the condition

of the tyre, as well as its infl ation

pressure, inspected.

P U N C T U R E

Advice - Recommendations

A punctured tyre should always

be removed from the rim and

thoroughly examined for damage

before attempting any repair.

When a repair is possible, it should

be carried out as soon as possible

to prevent further damage to the

tyre.
Tyre repair should be carried out by

a tyre specialist who will assume

responsibility for the repair.
Note:

The towing eye is stowed
either in the repair aerosol box
or in the tool kit.
If there are two repair aerosols,
this means that you need
to use both of them for the
temporary repair of the tyre.

T O W I N G – L I F T I N G

Towing with wheels on the ground

Towing eye fi xings are located at the front and at the rear of the vehicle.
To access them:

Carefully lift the access cover.

Release it by pressing on the lower part.

A lug keeps the cover attached to the bumper, so that it does not become

lost.
The ignition key must be in position M to retain steering.

Use a bar with attachments to the towing eyes as above.

Vehicles with manual gearbox (diesel models)

For vehicles with a manual gearbox, the gear lever must be in "neutral",

otherwise some components in the braking system could become damaged

and impair braking assistance the next time the engine is started.

•
•

Movable towing eye

The towing ring is detachable and

can be fi tted either at the front or at

the rear of the vehicle. It is stowed

in the toolkit which is to be found

either under one of the front seats

or in the repair aerosol kit located

in the boot.

When the engine is not running, the steering and the braking

are no longer assisted.

If you are towing another vehicle, the latter must be free-

wheeling (gearbox in neutral).

ADVICE

Towing

at low speed over a very

short distance is authorised in

exceptional cases depending on

the regulations in force.
Otherwise, it is necessary to

have your vehicle transported

on a recovery truck.

TOWING REQUIREMENTS

Place the selector on position N

(neutral).
