and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use the wheelbrace  1 to slacken off the 
wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able 
to push from above.
Crank up jack  2 by hand to posi-
tion the jack head against the jacking 
point closest to the relevant wheel and 
marked by an arrow  3.
To prevent any risk of injury 
or damage to the vehicle, 
only crank the jack until the 
wheel you are replacing is 
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the 
ground.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a 
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain 
these from your approved dealer.

If you have a puncture, re-
place the wheel as soon as 
possible.
A tyre which has been 
punctured should always be inspec-
ted (and repaired, where possible) 
by a specialist.
CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2)
Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on the 
central hub and turn it to locate the 
mounting holes in the wheel and the 
hub.
Tighten the bolts, checking that the 
wheel is correctly positioned on its hub. 
Lower the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, tighten 
the bolts fully and have the tightness 
of the bolts checked (tightening torque: 
105 N.m) and the emergency spare tyre 
pressure checked as soon as possible.
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as 
they may come loose under 
braking. After use, check 
that all the tools are correctly clip-
ped into the tool kit, then position it 
correctly in its housing: risk of injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the 
tool kit, only use these bolts for the 
emergency spare wheel: refer to the 
label affixed to the emergency spare 
wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel 
changing purposes only. Under no 
circumstances should it be used for 
carrying out repairs underneath the 
vehicle or to gain access to the un-
derside of the vehicle.
