PUNCTURE, EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (2/2)
Emergency spare wheel
On equipped vehicles, use tool A,
comprising:
– wheelbrace 2;
– for some versions, special end piece 1 (which must be added).
These components are stored in the
tool kit. To take out emergency spare wheel B
Using the tool A
, completely unscrew
the nut 5 (right-hand side) and partially
unscrew the nut 3 (left-hand side) until
the notch of the wheel carrier 4 is re-
leased from the nut 3.
Move it up and down and from side to
side to release the emergency spare
wheel.
Depending on the vehicle, a note in the
tool kit covers these instructions.
In some cases (rear puncture, vehi-
cle loaded with towing equipment,
etc.), it is necessary to raise the
vehicle (using the lifting point near-
est the wheel concerned) to permit
access to the emergency spare
wheel.

Do not leave the tools un-
secured inside the vehicle
as they may come loose
under braking. After use,
check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then position
it correctly in its housing: there is a
risk of injury.
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.
Nothing should be placed
on the floor area in front of
the driver as such objects
may slide under the pedal
during braking manoeuvres, thus
obstructing its use.
