Citroen C3: Spare wheel / Fitting a wheel

Fitting a
steel or ‘space-saver’ type

the washers do not make contact with the
steel or ‘space-saver’ type spare wheel. The
wheel is secured by the conical surface of
each bolt.

- Fit the wheel on the hub.
- Screw in the bolts by hand as far as possible.
- Pre-tighten the bolts using the wheelbrace
5 only.

- Lower the vehicle again fully.
- Fold jack 6 and remove it.

- Tighten the bolts using the wheelbrace 5 only.
- Refit the bolt covers to each of the bolts
(depending on equipment).
- Store the tools.
Parking the vehicle

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...
Putting the spare wheel back in place
Put the spare wheel back in place in its
housing.
Slacken the nut on the bolt by a few turns.
Position the fastening device (nut and bolt) in
the middle of the wheel...
Other information:
In AUTO mode, the windscreen wipers operate
automatically, without any action on the part of

the intensity of the rainfall automatically.
Detection of rainfall is by means of a rain/sunshine sensor at the top centre
of the
windscreen, behind the rear view mirror...
