Repair and refit the standard wheel as
soon as possible. Do not apply grease to
the bolt threads before assembly: they might spon-
taneously unscrew.
WARNING
The jack may be used to replace wheels
only on the car which it equips or other
cars of the same model. Never use the jack for
other purposes, such as lifting other models. Nev-
er use the jack to carry out repairs under the car.
Incorrect positioning of the jack may cause the
car to fall. Do not use the jack for loads higher
than the one shown on its label.
WARNING
If the hub cap is not fitted correctly, it may
come off when the car is travelling. Nev-
er tamper with the inflation valve. Never intro-
duce tools of any kind between the rim and the
tyre. Check tyre and spare wheel pressures regu-
larly, referring to the values shown in the “Tech-
nical specifications” section.
WARNING
Important notes:
❒the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired. If it breaks, it must be re-
placed with the same type;
❒no tool other than its cranking device may be fitted on
the jack.
To change a tyre, proceed as follows:
❒stop the car where it is not a danger to other road users
and you can replace the wheel safely. The ground should
be flat and solid;
❒turn the engine off and engage the handbrake;
❒engage first gear or reverse;
❒wear the reflective safety jacket (compulsory by law in
certain countries) before getting out of the car;
❒open the boot and lift the carpet or remove the cargo

❒ unscrew the locking device A-fig. 151;
❒take out the tool container C-fig. 151 and put it along-
side the wheel to be changed;
❒take out the spare wheel B-fig. 151;
❒loosen the bolts of the wheel to be replaced by about
one turn with the wrench provided E-fig. 152; if you
have alloy wheels, rock the car to make it easier to sep-
arate the rim from the wheel hub;
