r-"f"'n First read and observe the Introductory l.-J,:..LJ Information and safety warnings & on page420.
Only the spanner delivered with the vehicle should be used to loosen the wheel bolts.
Only loosen the wheel bolts by approximately one turn before raising the vehicle with the vehicle jack.
If the wheel bolt is very tight, you may be able to loosen it by pushing down the end of the spanner carefully with your foot. Hold on to the car for sup-port and take care not to slip.
Loosening the wheel bolts
• Fit the box spanner over the wheel bolt as far as it will go =>Fig. 297.
• Hold the end of the box spanner and turn the wheel bolt one turn anticlockwise => &.
Loosening the anti-theft wheel bolt
The anti-theft wheel bolt must be bolted into posi-tion =>Fig. 298@ or@ on wheels with a wheel cover. Otherwise, it will not be possible to fit the wheel cover.

Important information about the wheel bolts
The design of the wheel rims and wheel bolts is matched to the factory-fitted wheels. If different rims are fitted, the correct wheel bolts with the right length and correctly shaped bolt heads must be used. This ensures that wheels are fitted securely and that the brake system works properly.
In certain circumstances, wheel bolts from a vehi-cle of the same model series may not be used.
Tightening torque for the wheel bolts
The tightening torque for wheel bolts for steel and alloy wheels is 180 Nm. The tightening torque should be checked with a torque wrench immedi-ately after changing a wheel. .,.
Practical tips 421

If the wheel boils are corroded and difficult to turn, they must be replaced and the wheel hub threads cleaned before the tightening torque is checked.
Never grease or lubricate the wheel bolts or the threads of the wheel hub. This could cause them to loosen while the vehicle is in motion, even if the re-quired torque setting is used.
A WARNING
Incorrectly tightened wheel bolts can loosen while the vehicle is in motion and cause acci-dents, serious injury, and loss of control of the vehicle.
• Only use wheel bolts that belong to the wheel.
• Never use different wheel bolts.
• The wheel bolts and threads of the wheel hubs must be clean, free from oil and grease, and turn easily.
4221 If and when
A WARNING (Continued)
• Always use the box spanner placed In the vehicle at the factory to loosen and tighten the wheel bolts.
• Only loosen the wheel bolts by approxi-mately one turn before raising the vehicle with the vehicle jack.
• Never grease or lubricate the wheel bolts or the threads of the wheel hub. This could cause them to loosen while the vehicle is in motion, even if the required torque setting is used.
• Never remove the bolts on rims with bol-ted-on rings.
• If the tightening torque of the wheel bolts Is too low, the wheel bolts and rims can loos-en while the vehicle is In motion. The wheel bolts and threads can be damaged if the tightening torque is too high.
