138) The spare wheel supplied (for
versions/markets, where
provided) is specific for your
vehicle. Therefore, it must not be
used on other models. Do not
use spare wheels of other models
on your vehicle. The wheel bolts
are specific for your vehicle: do
not use them on different models
and do not use bolts from other
models on your car.
139) Have the wheel repaired and
refitted as soon as possible. Do
not apply grease to the bolt
threads before fitting: they could
come unscrewed.
140) Use the jack only to replace
wheels on the vehicle with which
it is supplied or on other vehicles
of the same model. Never use
the jack for other purposes, such
as lifting other car models. Never
use the jack to carry out repairs
under the vehicle. Incorrect
positioning of the jack may cause
the lifted vehicle to fall. Do not
use the jack for loads higher than
those shown on the label.
141) Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never introduce tools of any
kind between rim and tyre. Check
tyre and spare wheel pressure
regularly, referring to the values
shown in the "Technical
specifications" section.142) No tools other than the crank
provided should be used with
the spare wheel lifting device; it
should be operated by hand only.
143) On versions equipped with
self-levelling air suspension, never
introduce the head or hands in
the wheel arch: the vehicle could
raise or lower automatically
depending on possible load or
temperature changes.
144) The device should only be
operated by hand, without using
any type of tool other than the
crank provided, like pneumatic or
electrical screwers.
145) The moving components of the
jack (screw and joints) can also
cause injuries: do not touch them.
If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.146) At the end of the operation of
raising/locking the spare wheel,
after having checked the correct
positioning of the wheel under the
platform (white notch inside the
window on the device), the key
must be extracted, taking care not
to turn it in the wrong direction
to facilitate the extraction of the
key itself, to prevent the
attachment device from being
released and the wheel assembly
not being securely retained fig.
188.
147) Each time the spare wheel is
moved, check that it is correctly
positioned in its housing under
the platform. If it is not correctly
positioned, this could adversely
affect safety.
