Changing wheels
Hints
When using run-flat tires or tire sealants, a tire
does not need to be changed immediately in
the event of pressure loss due to a flat tire.
Which is why no spare tire is available.
The tools for changing wheels are available as
accessories from your service center.

Hints Safety measures in case of a breakdown
or a wheel change
▷Park the vehicle as far away as possible
from passing traffic and on solid ground.
Switch on the hazard warning system.▷Set the parking brake, and engage first gear
or transmission position P.▷Have all vehicle occupants get out of the
vehicle and ensure that they remain out‐
side the immediate area in a safe place,
such as behind a guardrail.▷If necessary, set up a warning triangle or
portable hazard warning lamp at an appro‐
priate distance. Comply with all safety
guidelines and regulations.▷Perform wheel change only on a flat, solid
and slip-resistant surface. On soft or slip‐
pery ground, e.g., snow, ice, tiles, etc., the
vehicle or vehicle jack can slip away to the
side.▷Do not place wood blocks or similar items
under the vehicle jack; otherwise, it cannot
reach its carrying lidacity because of the re‐
stricted height.▷If the vehicle is raised, do not lie under the
vehicle and do not start the engine; other‐
wise, a fatal hazard exists. ◀Use the vehicle jack only for changing
wheels
Use the vehicle jack only for changing wheels.
Do not attempt to use it to jack up a different
type of vehicle or loads of any kind; otherwise,
this could cause material damage and personal
injury. ◀
Removing compact wheel The compact wheel is housed in a well on the
underbody of the vehicle. The screw connec‐
tion of the compact wheel is located in the
cargo area under the floor mat, on the floor of
the storage compartment for the wheel chang‐
ing set.1.Loosen the nut from the wheel change set
using the wheel wrench.2.Remove the retaining plate.3.Screw wheel lug wrench onto the thread
and hold in place with one hand.Seite 203Replacing componentsMOBILITY203

wrench.6.Unscrewing the wheel wrench7.Pull out the well with compact wheel under
the vehicle toward the rear.8.Remove the spacer and compact wheel
from the well.9.Stow the well and spacer in the vehicle.
Prepare wheel change
1.Follow the Safety instructions, refer to
page 203.2.With the wheel chock from the wheel
change set, also secure the vehicle against
rolling away at the front wheel of the oppo‐
site side.3.Loosen the wheel lug bolts a half turn.
Jacking up the vehicle
1.Place the vehicle jack at the jacking point
closest to the wheel such that the vehicle
jack foot is vertically beneath the vehiclejacking point with the entire surface on the
ground.2.Insert the vehicle jack head in the rectan‐
gular recess of the jacking point for crank‐
ing it up.3.Crank it up until the wheel in question lifts
off of the ground.
Wheel mounting
1.Unscrew the wheel lug bolts and remove
the wheel.2.Put the new wheel or compact wheel on
and screw in at least two bolts.
If original MINI light alloy wheels are not
mounted, any accompanying lug bolts also
have to be used.3.Screw in the remaining the lug bolts and
tighten all bolts well in a crosswise pattern.4.Lower the vehicle and remove the vehicle
jack.
After the wheel change
1.Tighten the lug bolts crosswise. The tight‐
ening torque is 101 lb ft/140 Nm.
Check for secure seating of the lug
bolts
For safety reasons, have the secure seating
of the lug bolts checked with a calibrated
torque wrench; otherwise, a safety hazard
results from incorrectly tightened lug
bolts. ◀2.Stow the defective wheel in the cargo area.Seite 204MOBILITYReplacing components204

portunity and correct as needed.4.Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor, refer to
page 100.
Reinitialize the Tire Pressure Monitor, refer
to page 97.5.Replace the damaged tires as soon as pos‐
sible.
Driving with the compact wheel
Watch the speed when driving with the
emergency wheel
Drive conservatively and do not exceed a speed
of 50 mph/80 km/h; otherwise, changed driving
characteristics such as reduced lane stability
while braking, extended braking distance and
changed self-steering properties in the limit
area. ◀
Mount one emergency wheel only
Only a single emergency wheel may be
mounted. Reinstall wheels and tires of the orig‐
inal size as quickly as possible; otherwise, there
is a safety risk. ◀
