Lower anchorage location
Your vehicle’s rear seat (3-door models)/ second seat (5-door models) is fitted with
lower anchorages for attaching a child re- straint system with ISOFIX mountings.
Tether anchorage locations
There are 2 attachment points on the floor, located behind the rear seat (3-door models)/
second seat (5-door models). These are for securing a child restraint system tether strap to both of the 2 rear (3-door models)/second (5-door models) seating positions in your ve-
hicle.
WARNINGl Child restraint anchorages are designed
to withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attach-
ing other items or equipment to the vehi- cle.Child restraint system with
ISOFIX mountings
The child restraint system is designed only
for seats that incorporate lower anchorages.
Retain the child restraint system using the lower anchorages.
It is not necessary to retain the child restraint
system using the vehicle’s seat belts.

tyre is raised off the ground. It is danger-
ous to raise the vehicle any higher.
l Do not get under your vehicle while using
the jack.
l Do not bump the raised vehicle or leave it
sitting on the jack for a long time. Both are very dangerous.
l Do not use a jack except the one that
came with your vehicle.

pose other than to change a tyre.
l No one should be in your vehicle when us-
ing the jack.
l Do not start or run the engine while your
vehicle is on the jack.

still on the ground could turn and make your vehicle fall off the jack.
7. Remove the wheel nuts with the wheel
nut wrench, then take the wheel off.
CAUTIONl Handle the wheel carefully when changing
the tyre, to avoid scratching the wheel sur- face.
8. Clean out any mud, etc. on the hub sur-
face (F), hub bolts (G) or in the installa- tion holes (H) in the wheel, and then
mount the spare wheel.
WARNINGl Mount the spare wheel with the valve
stem (I) facing outboard. If you cannot see
the valve stem, you have installed the wheel backwards.
Operating the vehicle with the spare
wheel installed backwards can cause vehi-
cle damage and result in an accident.
9. Finger-tighten the wheel nuts. (Turn
them clockwise.)

Vehicles with steel wheels
Tighten the wheel nuts (tapered nuts)
until the tapered parts of the wheel nuts make light contact with the seats of the wheel holes and the wheel is not loose.
