shown ⇒page 183, fig. 128 -arrows-.Taking off / putting on the wheel
Step-by-step instructions for taking off and putting on the
wheel.Change the wheel as described below after loosening the
wheel bolts and raising the vehicle with the jack.
Taking off the wheel
–Using the hexagonal opening in the screwdriver handle
(provided in the vehicle's tool kit), unscrew the wheel bolt
nearest to the top and place the bolt on a clean surface.–Screw in the mounting pin (provided in the vehicle's tool
kit) by hand in place of the wheel bolt ⇒fig. 130.
– Then unscrew the other wheel bolts as described above.
– Take off the wheel ⇒. The mounting pin stays where
it is.
Putting on the wheel
– Put on the spare wheel, using the mounting pin to guide
it into place ⇒.
– Screw in the wheel bolts and tighten them lightly using
the hexagonal opening in the screwdriver handle.
– Then unscrew the mounting pin and tighten the
remaining wheel bolt lightly.
The wheel bolts should be clean and turn easily. Before putting on
the wheel, inspect the condition of the wheel and hub mounting
surfaces. These surfaces must be clean before mounting the wheel.
The hexagonal opening in the screwdriver handle makes it easier to
turn the wheel bolts when they are loose. The reversible screwdriver
blade should be removed when the tool is used for this purpose.
Note the direction of rotation when putting on a tyre with direc-
tional tread pattern ⇒page 182.
Caution
When removing/fitting the wheel the rim may hit and damage the
brake disc. For this reason, please take care and get a second person
to assist you.
Note

Switch off the car telephone if necessary. Details will be given in
the manufacturer's instructions for the car telephone.
Starting the engine
The jump leads must be connected in the correct
sequence.The battery is located in the luggage compartment
⇒page 163. The luggage lid can be released manually if
necessary ⇒page 48.
Connecting the positive terminals with the
positive lead (red)
1. Connect one end of the positive lead to the positive
terminal ⇒fig. 131 of the discharged battery .
2. Connect the other end of the positive lead to the positive
terminal of the boosting battery .
Connecting negative terminals with the
negative lead (black)
3. Connect one end of the negative lead to the negative
terminal of the boosting battery .4. Connect the other end of the negative lead to the nega-
tive terminal of the discharged battery .
Starting the engine
– Start the engine of the vehicle with the boosting battery
and let it run at idling speed.
– Now start the engine of the vehicle with the discharged
battery.
– If the engine fails to start: do not operate the starter for
longer than 10 seconds. Wait for about 30 seconds and
try again.
– When the engine is running, disconnect the leads in
exactly the opposite sequence.
The battery is vented to the outside to prevent gases entering the
vehicle's interior.
Connect the battery clamps so they have good metal-to-metal
contact with the respective terminals.
WARNING
•
The non-insulated parts of the battery clamps must not be
allowed to touch. The jump lead attached to the positive battery
terminal must not touch metal parts of the vehicle: this can cause
short circuiting.
•
Position the jump leads in such a way that they cannot come
into contact with any moving parts in the engine compartment.
•
Do not bend over the batteries – risk of acid burns.
•
The screw plugs on the battery cells must be screwed in firmly.
•
Keep sparks, flame and lighted cigarettes away from batteries:
the gases given off can cause an explosion.

Make sure that the towrope is not twisted, as otherwise the front
towline anchorage on your vehicle could work itself loose.
Front towline anchorage
The front towline anchorage is only mounted if the vehicle
has to be towed.The towline anchorage is screwed anti-clockwise into the
screw connection (left-hand thread) which is located on the
right side of the front bumper behind the air intake grille.
– Take the towline anchorage out of the vehicle's tool kit
⇒page 178.
– Pull the bottom part of the grille out.
– Screw the towline anchorage firmly all the way into the
screw connection ⇒fig. 132.After use, unscrew the towline anchorage and put it back in the
toolbox. The towline anchorage should always be kept in the
vehicle.When refitting the air intake grille, first insert the lugs on the grille
into their mountings in the intake duct. Then press the grille firmly
back into place.
WARNING
If the towline anchorage is not screwed in as far as the stop, there
is a risk of the screw connection shearing off during towing (acci-
dent risk).Tow-starting
