MAINTENANCE OF YOUR 406
Fitting a wheel
– Position the wheel using the cen-
tralising tool to assist you.
– Tighten the bolts by hand, and
remove the centralising tool.
– Partly tighten the bolts using the
wheel brace.
– Fold the jack and remove it.
– Fully tighten the wheel bolts using
the wheel brace.
– Replace the wheel trim, except in
the case of a space-saver wheel,
and
by starting with the valve and
pressing on using the palm of your
hand.
For your safety, always
change the wheel:
– on level, stable, non-slippery
ground,
– with the handbrake applied,
– with first or reverse
engaged (position P for the
automatic gearbox).
– Never go underneath a vehicle
which is supported only by a
jack (use a ramp).
After changing the wheel
– have the tightening of the bolts
and the tyre pressure checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible,
– have the punctured tyre repaired
and refit it to the vehicle as soon
as possible.
