CHANGING A WHEEL
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Undo the wheel bolts with
wheelbrace 1. Position it so that you
can push it from above.
Fit the jack 3horizontally; the jack
head must be fitted at the height of
the bodywork support 2closest to
the wheel concerned, marked by an
arrow 4.
Crank up the jack by hand at first to
align the base plate (which should
be inclined further inwards under
the car). Turn a few times to lift the wheel off
the ground.
Undo the bolts and take off the
wheel.
Fit the spare wheel on the central
hub and turn it to locate the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
If bolts are supplied with the
emergency spare wheel, only use
these bolts for the emergency spare
wheel. Tighten the bolts and lower
the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, fully
tighten the bolts and check they are
correctly tightened as quickly as
possible (tightening torque 110 Nm).
If you have a puncture,
replace the wheel as soon
as possible.
A tyre which has been
punctured should always be
inspected (and repaired, where
possible) by a specialist.
Park the car on firm, level
ground which is not slippery
(e.g. avoid tiled flooring,
etc.) - if necessary, place a
plank of wood under the jack for
support. Switch on the hazard
warning lights.
Apply the hand brake and engage a
gear (first or reverse, or Pfor
automatic transmission).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.
