Removing A Wheel; List Of Operations - CITROEN C4 Spacetourer Handbook

Removing a wheel

Parking the vehicle
Stop the vehicle where it does not block
traffic: the ground must be level, stable
and non-slippery.
Apply the parking brake, unless it is
programmed in automatic mode; switch
off the ignition and put the vehicle into first
gear* so as to block the wheels.
Check that the braking warning lamp and
the P warning lamp in the parking brake
control lever come on.
For more safety, position the chock
2 against the wheel opposite the one you
are replacing.
Make absolutely certain that all the
occupants have left the vehicle and are
waiting in a safe area.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.
Do not use:
- the jack for any other purpose than
lifting the vehicle,
- a jack other than the one supplied by
the manufacturer.
* position P for the automatic gearbox

List of operations

F Remove the bolt cover(s) using the tool 4
(according to equipment).
F Fit security socket 5 on wheelbrace 1 to
slacken the security bolt (according to
equipment).
F Slacken the other bolts (no more than
a 1/4 turn) using the wheelbrace 1 only.
In the event of a breakdown
F Place the foot of the jack 3 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.
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the
ground is slippery or loose, the jack may
slip or collapse – 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, the vehicle could be
damaged and/or the jack could collapse –
Risk of injury!
F Extend the jack 3 until its head comes into
contact with jacking point A or B used,
with contact surface A or B on the vehicle
correctly engaged with the central part of
the head of the jack.
