Peugeot 205 Automobile Parts User Manual


 
The jack supplied with the vehicle tool kit
should only be used for changing the
roadwheels - see “Wheel changing” at the
front of this manual. When carrying out any
other kind of work, raise the vehicle using a
hydraulic (or “trolley”) jack, and always
supplement the jack with axle stands.
The sill jacking points or their adjacent
re-inforced areas should be used as jacking
points for raising the car (see illustration). A
beam may be placed under the front
subframe and the front end jacked up under
that. The side-members of the front subframe
should be used as axle stand support points.
The rear side-members may be used in a
similar way.
Never work under, around, or near a raised
vehicle, unless it is adequately supported in at
least two places.
The radio/cassette unit fitted as standard or
optional equipment may be equipped with a
built-in security code, to deter thieves. If the
power source to the unit is cut, the anti-theft
system will activate. Even if the power source
is immediately reconnected, the
radio/cassette unit will not function until the
correct security code has been entered.
Therefore, if you do not know the correct
security code for the radio/cassette unit do
not disconnect either of the battery terminals,
or remove the radio/cassette unit from the
vehicle.
To enter the correct security code, follow
the instructions provided with the
radio/cassette player or vehicle handbook.
If an incorrect code is entered, the unit will
become locked, and cannot be operated.
If this happens, or if the security code is lost
or forgotten, seek the advice of your Peugeot
dealer.
