Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not block   traffic:   the   ground   must   be   level,  
s

table   and   not   slippery.
Apply
  the   parking   brake   unless   it   has  
b

een   programmed   to   automatic   mode,  
s

witch   off   the   ignition   and   engage   first  
g

ear*   to   block   the   wheels.
Check
  that   the   braking   warning   lamp  
a

nd   the   P   warning   lamp   in   the   parking  
b

rake   control   lever   come   on.
For
  greater   safety,   place   the   chock   2
against
  the   wheel   opposite   to   the   one  
b

eing
 c
hanged.
The
  occupants   must   get   out   of   the  
v

ehicle   and   wait   where   they   are   safe.
Never
  go   underneath   a   vehicle  
s

upported   by   a   jack;   use   an   axle   stand.

Charging the battery using a battery charger
If this label is present, it is essential
to
  use   only   a   12   V   charger,   to   avoid  
c

ausing   irreversible   damage   to   the  
e

lectrical   components   related   to   the  
S

top   &   Start   system.
For
 
optimum   service   life   of   the   battery,   it   is  
e

ssential   to   maintain   an   adequate   state   of  
c

harge.
In
 
some   circumstances   it   may   be   necessary   to  
c

harge   the   battery:
-
 
i

f
 
you   use   your   vehicle   essentially   for   short  
j

ourneys,
-
 
i

f
 
the   vehicle   is   to   be   taken   off   the   road   for
