The tools included in the tool kit depend
on the vehicle.

wheel bolts.
towing hitch 2

Section 5.
Jack 3
When replacing the jack, fold it cor -
rectly and position the wheelbrace cor-
rectly before replacing it in its position.
Hubcap tool 4
This tool is used to remove the wheel
trims.
Do not leave the tools un -
secured inside the vehicle
as they may come loose
under braking. After use,
check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then position
it correctly in its housing: there is a
risk of injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the
tool kit, only use these bolts for the
emergency spare wheel: refer to the
label affixed to the emergency spare
wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel
changing purposes only. Under no
circumstances should it be used for
carrying out repairs underneath the
vehicle or to gain access to the un-
derside of the vehicle.

Changing a wheel
cHangIng a WHeeL (1/2)
Vehicles equipped with

wrench
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use wheelbrace 1 to slacken off the
wheel bolts. Fit it so that you press
downwards rather than pulling up -
wards.
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).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.

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.
Offer up jack 2 horizontally; the jack
head must be lined up with sill 3 as
close as possible to the wheel con -
cerned.
Start cranking the jack up by hand to
align the base plate (which should be
pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts
off the ground.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.

Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel onto
the hub and rotate it until the mount -
ing holes in the wheel are aligned with
those of the hub.
If bolts are supplied with the emergency
spare wheel, only use these bolts for
the emergency spare wheel. Tighten
the bolts, checking that the wheel is
correctly positioned on its hub and
lower the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, tighten
the bolts fully and have the tightness
of the bolts checked (tightening torque:
105 N.m) and the emergency spare
wheel pressure checked as soon as
possible.
cHangIng a WHeeL (2/2)
If you have a puncture, re -
place the wheel as soon as
possible.
A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.
