Vehicle tool kit, jack and spare
wheel*
The vehicle tool kit is located in a stowage
compartment underneath the boot floor.
G Risk of injury
The jack is designed only to raise and hold
the vehicle for a short time while a wheel
is being changed.
If you are carrying out work on the vehicle,
you must use stands.
Make sure that the jack is placed on a firm,
non-slip and level surface. Do not use
wooden blocks or similar objects as a jack
underlay. Otherwise, the jack will not be
able to achieve its load-bearing capacity
due to the restricted height.
Do not start the engine at any time while a
wheel is being changed.
Do not lie under the vehicle when it is being
supported by the jack. If you do not raise
the vehicle as described, it could slip off the
jack (e.g. if the engine is started or a door
or the boot lid is opened or closed) and you
could be seriously injured.
i When using the jack, you should also
observe the safety notes in the "Flat tyre"
section ( Y page 276). X
Fold up the boot floor and hook the retainer
into the top of the boot frame.
