Access to the spare wheel
The spare wheel is installed in the boot under the fl oor.
According to country, the spare wheel may be steel or of the "space saver" type.
To gain access to it, refer to the paragraph "Access to the tools" on the previous page.
Fitting the steel or "spacesaver" type spare wheel
If your vehicle is fi tted with alloy wheels, it is normal to notice, when tightening the bolts on fi tting, that the washers do not come into contact with the steel or "space-saver" type spare wheel. The wheel is secured by the conical contact of each bolt.
Taking out the wheel
Putting the wheel back in place
On vehicles equipped with a "space-saver" type spare wheel, the punctured wheel cannot be stowed in place of the "spacesaver" wheel.
Removing the wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not block traffi c: the ground must be level, stable and not slippery.
Apply the parking brake, switch off the ignition and engage fi rst gear * to lock the wheels.
If necessary, place a chock under the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be changed.
It is imperative that you ensure that the occupants get out of the vehicle and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised using a jack; use an axle stand.

Have the punctured wheel repaired and replace it on the vehicle as soon as possible.
Do not drive with more than one temporary use spare wheel fi tted to the vehicle at one time.
