Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use the wheelbrace to slacken off the
wheel bolts 2 . Position it so as to be
able to push from above.
Start extending jack 4 by hand, turning
the handle.
Position the jack head against jacking
point 1 closest to the wheel concerned
and, depending on the vehicle, the area
marked by a triangle. If the ground is
soft, place a plank of wood under the
baseplate.
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level sur -
face where it will not slip (if neces -
sary, place a solid support under the
jack base).
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse, or P for auto-
matic transmissions).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.
changIng a wheel (1/2)
Continue tightening to position the
baseplate on the ground correctly. Turn
handle 3 on the jack to lift the wheel off
the ground.
To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.
