– The jack should be placed at some 17 cm in front and
approximately 21 cm away at the rear from the corresponding
wheel track
⇒fig. 138.
• Place the jack under the vehicle:
The fig. 139shows the jack fitted on the rear left hand side.

•In vehicles fitted with a plastic cover*, remove the cover to access the
attachment points of the vehicle. For this proceed as follows:
Pull on the cover and remove from its housing.
Once the cover is removed, it will remain suspended by a rubber to avoid its
loss.
– Wind jack arm up by turning the crank in the spindle until the
jack just goes under the vehicle.
– The claw of the jack must fit round the vertical rib on the side
member so that the jack cannot slip when vehicle is lifted
⇒fig. 139.
– Align jack and at same time wind claw up further until it contacts
the vertical rib on side member.
• Lift vehicle until the wheel is just clear of the ground.

•The defective wheel should be repaired as soon as possible.
Notes for tyres where the direction of rotation is stipulated
It is imperative that the designated direction of rotation for the tyre
treads (which can be determined from the arrow on the side of the
tyre) be kept to. The best tyre performance i.e. in aquaplaning,
road adhesion, noise and wear are then guaranteed.
If a spare wheel has to be fitted against the stipulated direction of
rotation, this measure should only be a temporary one. The best
possible tyre performance concerning aquaplaning, noise level and
wear are no longer fully guaranteed.
We recommend that you take this into account, especially in wet
weather, and adjust your speed to the driving conditions.
In order to use the principle of the direction of rotation fully again,
the faulty tyre must be replaced as soon as possible.
If necessary, mount the tyre fitted against the direction of rotation
in the stipulated direction.

• If the fuse burns out again shortly after being changed, immediately take
your vehicle to a Technical Service Centre to have the electricalsystem
checked.
• Some of the components listed are only found on certain models or are
optional extras.
K
Changing a fuse
The fuses are located on the left hand side of the dash panel
behind a cover.
On right-hand drive versions, the fuses are on the right hand side
of the dash panel behind a cover.
• Switch off the ignition and the component concerned.
• Take the cover off.
To do this, place the flat blade of the screwdriver in the recess on
the cover (arrow) and lever off.
• With the aid of the list of fuses (see next pages or the cover of
the fuse box) determine which fuse belongs to the component that
has failed.
• Remove the appropriate fuse.
• Replace blown fuse – can be recognised by the burnt metal strip
– with a fuse of same amperage.
• Replace the cover.

General notes
Before replacing a bulb you must first switch off the corresponding
consumer.Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with bare fingers since the
finger prints left on the glass or the sweat could evaporate when
the bulb becomes hot and cause a drastic decrease in life span
and/or properties. You can avoid this problem by wearing gloves
when changing a bulb.
A bulb must be replaced by a bulb with the same properties. The
designation is marked on the base of the bulb or on the glass.
We recommend you always carry a box of spare bulbs in the
vehicle. At the very least, carry the following bulbs since they are
essential for driving safety:

As a result of the special engine construction and the subsequent space
requirements and depending on the vehicle version, access to the bulbs
may be very difficult.
Changing bulbs should be carried out by a Technical Service Center.
Nonetheless, procedures on changing bulbs, except for xenon* bulbs, is
described as follows.
K
Main beam bulbs
1)Replacing this type of the light must be carried out by a Technical Service Centre since
complex vehicle parts must be disassembled and the incorporated automatic
regulatory system must be reset.
2)The glowing capacity of Xenon bulbs is 2.5 times higher than regular ones and their
life span is 5 times higher than halogen bulbs. It is not necessary to replace these
bulbs during the vehicle’s life, unless there is an anomaly.
