- Unclip the tool storage box (standard spare
wheel).
- Slacken the central nut.
- Remove the fastening device (nut and bolt).

the floor.
Depending on engine, the spare wheel is
a standard wheel or the space-saver type

Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does
not obstruct traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and non-slippery.
With a manual gearbox, engage first gear
to lock the wheels, apply the parking brake, unless it is programmed to be in
automatic
mode, and switch off the ignition...
Other information:
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to
Cruise control - particular recommendations.
This system automatically keeps
the
vehicle’s speed at the cruise value
programmed by the driver (speed setting),
without using the accelerator pedal...
(Depending on version.)
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the engine oil level status is displayed
on the instrument panel for a few seconds upon
switching the ignition on, after the servicing
information.
The level read will only be
correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes...
