In the event of a breakdown

Removing a wheel

Parking the vehicle

Immobilise the vehicle where it does not
block traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and not slippery.
Apply the parking brake, switch off the
ignition and engage first gear to block
the wheels.
Check that the parking brake warning
lamps in the instrument panel come on.
The occupants must get out of the
vehicle and wait where they are safe.
Ensure that the jack is correctly
positioned at one of the vehicle's
jacking points.
Incorrect use of the jack could cause
the vehicle to drop.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.

List of operations

F

Remove the wheel bolt cover(s) using the

tool 3

(depending on version).

F

Slacken the bolts using the

wheelbrace 1

only.

Do not use:
- the jack for any other purpose than

lifting the vehicle,

- a jack other than the one supplied

by the manufacturer.

The jack must only be used to change a
wheel with a damaged tyre.
The jack does not require any
maintenance.

The jack conforms to European
legislation, such as defined in the
Machinery Directive 2006/42/CE.

195

In the event of a breakdown

F

Position the foot of the jack 2 on the ground

and ensure that it is directly below the
front A or rear B

jacking point provided on

the underbody, whichever is closest to the
wheel to be changed.

F

Extend the jack 2 until its head comes into contact with the jacking point A or B used;

the vehicle's contact area A or B must engage with the central part of the head of the jack.

F

Raise the vehicle until there is sufficient space between the wheel and the ground to admit

the spare (not punctured) wheel easily.

Ensure that the jack is stable. If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack may slip or drop -
Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at one of the jacking points A or B under the vehicle,
making sure that the vehicle's contact surface is centred on the head of the jack. Otherwise
there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or of the jack dropping - Risk of injury!

normal to notice that the washers do not
come into contact with the spare wheel.
The wheel is secured by the conical
surface of each bolt.

After changing a wheel

Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired
and refitted to the vehicle as soon as
possible.

glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.

The headlamps have polycarbonate
lenses with a protective coating:
F do not clean them using a dry

or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,

F

use a sponge and soapy water or a

pH neutral product,

F

when using a high pressure washer

on persistent marks, do not keep
the lance directed towards the
lamps or their edges for too long,
so as not to damage their protective
coating and seals.

Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for several minutes (risk of serious
burns).
F

Do not touch the bulb directly with

your fingers, use a lint-free cloth.

It is imperative to use only anti-
