Fitting the spare wheel
Anti-theft bolt**
If your vehicle is fitted with a steel
spare wheel, it is normal when secu-
ring it to notice that the bolt washers
do not come into contact with the
rim. The spare wheel is secured by
the cone-shaped support of each
bolt.
If your wheels are fitted with an anti-
theft bolt (one per wheel), the
chrome trim and then the plastic
cover must be removed, using tool 3,
before it is unscrewed using one of
the two anti-theft sockets (which
were given to you on delivery of your
vehicle along with the duplicate keys
and the confidential card) and the
wheel brace 1.
Alloy wheel bolts are covered by
chrome trims.
Use tool 3 to remove the trims before
slackening the bolts.
Fitting snow tyres
If you fit snow tyres mounted on steel
wheels, it is essential to use special
bolts available from your PEUGEOT
dealer.
Note: make a careful note of the code
number engraved on the top of the
anti-theft socket. This will enable you
to obtain a duplicate of the anti-theft
socket from a PEUGEOT dealer.
* According to specification.
** According to model and destination.
