reduced track stability on braking, extended
braking distance, and altered self-steering
characteristics in the limit range. In conjunction
with winter tires, these characteristics are more
pronounced. ◀
Only mount one compact wheel
Only one compact wheel may be
mounted. Restore the wheels and tires to their
original size as quickly as possible. Failure to do
so is a safety risk. ◀
Check the tire inflation pressure at the next op‐
portunity and correct it if necessary. Replace
the defective tire as soon as possible and have
the new wheel balanced.
Preparing wheel change
Observe the safety precautions regarding flat
tires, refer to page 232.
Additional safety precautions in the event
of a wheel change
Change the wheel only on a level, firm surface
which is not slippery.
The vehicle or the jack could slip to the side if
you attempt to raise the vehicle on a soft or
slippery surface, snow, ice, tiles, etc. Do not use
a wooden block or similar object as a support
base for the jack, as this would prevent it from
extending to its full support height and reduce
its load-carrying capacity.
To avoid serious or fatal injury: never lie under
the vehicle, and never start the engine while it
is supported by the jack. ◀1.Place the folding wheel chock behind the
front wheel of the other vehicle side; if the
vehicle is on an incline, place it in front of
this wheel. If the vehicle is parked on a
steep incline, additionally secure the vehi‐
cle against rolling.2.Expose the lug bolts if necessary.3.Loosen the lug bolts a half turn.Jacking up vehicle
The vehicle jack is designed for changing
wheels only.
The vehicle jack is designed for changing
wheels only. Do not attempt to raise another
vehicle model with it or to raise any load of any
kind. To do so could cause accidents and per‐
sonal injury. ◀
1.Position the vehicle jack at the jacking point
closest to the wheel.
The entire surface of the jack base must
rest on the ground vertically beneath the
jacking point.2.Guide the jack head into the rectangular re‐
cess of the jacking point when cranking up.3.Jack the vehicle up until the wheel you are
changing is raised from the ground.
Mounting the compact wheel
1.Unscrew the lug bolts and remove the
wheel.2.Remove accumulations of mud or dirt from
the mounting surfaces of the wheel and
hub. Also clean the lug bolts.Seite 251Replacing componentsMobility251
