•
If you find, when changing the wheel,
that the wheel bolts are corroded and
difficult to turn, the bolts mu
st be replaced before chec
king the tightening torque.
•
Drive cautiously and only at a moderate speed to a workshop where the tight-
ening torque can be checked.Full wheel trim*Pulling off – Hook the clamp found in the vehicle tool kit into the reinforced edge
of the full wheel trim.
– Push the wheel key through the clamp, support the wheel key at the
tyre and pull off the wheel trim.
Installing – First press the full wheel trim onto the wheel at the valve opening
provided. Then press the full wheel trim into the wheel in such a way that its entire circumference locks correctly in place. Caution
•
Use the pressure of your hand, do not knock on the full wheel trim! Heavy
knocks mainly on the points where the full
wheel trim has not been inserted into
the wheel, can result in damage to the guide and centering elements of the full wheel trim.•
First check for yourself that the th
eft-deterrent wheel bolt is located
⇒ page 249, “Securing wheels against being stolen*” in the hole in the area of the valve before fitting the full wheel trim onto
a steel wheel which is attached with a
theft-deterrent wheel bolt.
Wheel bolts with caps*Pulling off – Push the plastic clip sufficiently fa
r onto the cap until the inner catches
of the clip are positioned at the collar of the cap and detach the cap ⇒

Raise vehicle You have to raise the vehicle with a lifting jack in order to be able to take off the wheel. Position the lifting jack by selecting
the jacking point which is closest to
the wheel to be removed
⇒
fig. 220
. The jacking point is located directly
below the engraving in the lower sill. – Position the lifting jack below the jacking point and move it up until its
claw is positioned directly below the vertical web of the lower sill.
– Align the car jack so that its claw grasps the web of the lower sill
and the base plate is resting flat on the floor.
– Turn the lifting jack up further until the wheel is just clear of the
ground.
Ground below the lifting jack which is soft and slippery
can cause the vehicle to
slip off the jack. It is therefore always ne
cessary to place the lifting jack on a solid
surface or use a wide and stable base. Use
a non-slip base (e.g. a rubber foot mat)
if the
surface is smooth
, such as cobbled stones, a tiled floor, etc.
WARNING
•
Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed - risk of injury!
•
Take suitable measures to prevent the base of the lifting jack from slip-
ping off - risk of injury!•
Not positioning the lifting jack at
the specified points can result in
damage to the vehicle. The jack can also sl
ip off if it does not have sufficient
grip - risk of injury!•
It is important to support the vehicle with suitable supporting blocks if
you wish to work under the lifted vehicle - risk of injury!Securing wheels against being stolen* You need a special adapter for slackening the safety wheel bolts.– Pull off the full wheel trim/cap from the wheel hub or cap from the
safety wheel bolt.
– Insert the adapter with its toothed side fully into the inner toothing
of the safety wheel bolt right down in such a way that only the outer hexagon is jutting out
⇒
fig. 221
.
– Insert the wheel wrench fully onto the adapter .– Slacken the wheel bolt, or tighten it firmly
