Raising the vehicle Fig. 186
Crossbar: marks. Fig. 187
Strut: mounting the jack on the vehi-
cle. –
Place the jack* (vehicle tools) on a firm sur-
face. If necessary use a large, strong board
or similar support. On a slippery surface
(such as tiles) place the jack on a rubber
mat or similar to prevent it from slipping.
››› . –
Find the support point on the strut (sunken
area) closest to the wheel to be changed
››› Fig. 186 . The jack* support point is be-
hind the m ark
on the strut.
– Turn the jack*, located below the strut sup-
port point, to raise it until tab 1 ›››
Fig. 187 is below the housing provided.
– Align the j
ack* so that tab 1 “grips” onto
the housing provided on the strut and the
mobile base 2 is resting on the ground.
The base plate 2 should fall vertically with
respect to the support point 1 .
– Continue turning the jack* until the wheel
is slightly lifted off the ground. WARNING
● Make sure that the jack* remains stable. If
the surface is slippery or soft, the jack* could
slip or sink, respectively, with the resultant
risk of injury.
● Only raise the vehicle with the jack* sup-
plied by the manufacturer. Other vehicles
could slip, with the consequent risk of injury.
● Only mount the jack* on the support points
designed for this purpose on the strut, and
always align the jack correctly. If you do not,
the jack* could slip as it does not have an ad-
equate grip on the vehicle: risk of injury!
● The height of the parked vehicle can
change as a result of variations in tempera-
ture and loading. CAUTION
The vehicle must not be raised on the cross-
bar. Only place the jack* on the points de-
signed for this purpose on the strut. Other-
wise, the vehicle may be damaged. Removing and fitting a wheel
Change the wheel as described below after
loosening the wheel bolts and raising the ve-
hicle with the jack.
Taking off the wheel
– Unscrew the wheel bolts using the box
spanner and place them on a clean surface.
– Take off the wheel ››› .
Putting on the spare wheel
When fitting tyres with a compulsory rotation
direction, observe the instructions in
››› page 220 .
– Mou nt
the wheel.
– Screw on the wheel bolts in position and
tighten them loosely with a box spanner.
– Carefully lower the vehicle using the jack*.
– Tighten the wheel bolts in diagonal pairs
using the wheel brace.
The wheel bolts should be clean and turn
easily. Before fitting the spare wheel, inspect »

the wheel condition and hub mounting surfa-
ces. These surfaces must be clean before fit-
ting the wheel. CAUTION
When removing/fitting the wheel, the rim
may hit and damage the brake disc. For this
reason, please take care and get a second
person to assist you. Tyres with compulsory direction of
rotation
A directional tread pattern can be identified
by arrows on the sidewall that point in the di-
rection of rotation. Always observe the direc-
tion of rotation indicated when mounting the
wheel. This is important so that these tyres
can give maximum grip and avoid excessive
noise, tread wear and aquaplaning.
If, exceptionally, it is necessary to mount the
spare wheel* in the opposite direction of ro-
tation, please drive carefully, as in this case
the tyre does not have optimum conditions of
use. This is particularly important when driv-
ing on wet roads.
To benefit from the advantages of tyres with
this type of tread pattern, the defective tyre
should be replaced as soon as possible so
that all tyres again rotate in the correct direc-
tion. After changing a wheel –
On alloy wheels: replace the wheel bolt
caps.
– On plate wheels: replace the wheel hubcap
››› page 217.
– Put the tools and jack back in the luggage
compartment.
– If the replaced wheel does not fit in the
spare wheel housing, store it safely in the
luggage compartment ››› page 114.
– Check the tyre pressure of the newly moun-
ted tyre as soon as possible.
– In vehicles fitted with a tyre pressure indi-
cator, adjust the pressure and store the
reading in the radio/ Easy Connect system*
››› page 212.
– The wheel bolts should be tightened to 120
Nm. Check the torque as soon as possible
with a torque wrench. Meanwhile, drive
carefully.
– Have the flat tyre replaced as quickly as
possible. Tyre repair
Tools, anti-puncture kit* The tools and anti-puncture kit* are stored
under the floor panel in the luggage compart-
ment.
To access the vehicle tools:
– Lift up the floor surface by the plastic han-
dle until it is fastened to the tabs on both
sides.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the
tyre repair kit* is located under the floor pan-
el in the luggage compartment.
The tool kit includes: ● Jack*
● Wire hook for pulling off the wheel cov-
er* /wheel bolt cap clip.
● Box spanner for wheel bolts*
● Towline anchorage
● Adapter for the anti-theft wheel bolts*
Some of the items listed are only provided in
certain model versions, or are optional ex-
tras. Note
The jack does not generally require any main-
tenance. If required, it should be greased us-
ing universal type grease. 220

Note
In practice, and considering all the factors
mentioned here, consumption values can dif-
fer from those calculated in the current Euro-
pean regulations. Weights
Kerb weight refers to the basic model with a
fuel tank filled to 90% capacity and without
optional extras. The figure quoted includes
75 kg to allow for the weight of the driver.
Special versions, optional equipment fittings
or retro-fitting accessories will increase the
weight of the vehicle
››› .
WARNING
● Please note that the centre of gravity may
shift when transporting heavy objects; this
may affect vehicle handling and lead to an ac-
cident. Always adjust your speed and driving
style to suit road conditions and require-
ments.
● Never exceed the gross axle weight rating
or the gross vehicle weight rating. If the per-
missible axle load or the permissible total
weight is exceeded, the driving characteris-
tics of the vehicle may change, which could
lead to accidents, injuries and damage to the
vehicle. Towing a trailer
Trailer weights Trailer weight
The trailer weights and drawbar loads ap-
proved are selected in intensive trials accord-
ing to precisely defined criteria. The ap-
proved trailer weights apply to vehicles in the
EU and generally for maximum speeds of 80
km/h (100 km/h in c
er
tain circumstances).
The figures may be different in other coun-
tries. All data in the official vehicle documen-
tation takes precedence over these data at all
times ››› .
Drawbar loads
The maximum
permitted drawbar load on the
b
all joint of the towing bracket must not ex-
ceed
80 kg.
In the interest of road safety, we recommend
that you always tow approaching the maxi-
mum drawbar load. The response of the trail-
er on the road will be poor, if the drawbar
load is too small.
If the maximum permissible drawbar load
cannot be met (e.g. with small, empty and
light-weight single axle trailers or tandem
axle trailers with a wheelbase of less than 1
metre), a minimum of 4% of the actual trailer
weight is legally required for the drawbar
load. WARNING
● For safety reasons, do not exceed the 80
km/h (50 mph) limit. This is also valid in
countries where higher speeds are permitted.
● Never exceed the maximum trailer weights
or the drawbar load. If the permissible axle
load or the permissible total weight is excee-
ded, the driving characteristics of the vehicle
may change, leading to accidents, injuries
and damage to the vehicle. Wheels

The sticker with the tyre pressure values can
be found on the inside of the fuel tank flap.
The tyre pressure values given there are for
cold

res must not be reduced. ››› Snow chains

Wheel bolts
After the wheels have been changed, the
tightening torque
of the wheel bolts should
be c hec
ked as soon as possible with a torque
wrench ››› . The tightening torque for steel
and alloy wheels is 120 Nm. WARNING
● Check the tyre pressure at least once per
month. Checking the tyre pressure is very im-
portant. If the tyre pressure is too high or too
low, there is an increased danger of accidents
- particularly at high speeds.
● If the tightening torque of the wheel bolts
is too low, they could loosen while the vehi-
cle is in motion. Risk of accident! If the tight-
ening torque is too high, the wheel bolts and
threads can be damaged. Note
We recommend that you ask your Technical
Service for information about appropriate
wheel, tyre and snow chain size. 244
