standing firmly on the ground.
XPlace the jack to one side.
XTighten the wheel bolts in the sequence
indicated 0043to0085.
Do this evenly in a crosswise pattern. The
tightening torque must be 77 lb-ft (105 Nm).
XCheck the tire pressure of the newly moun-
ted wheel and adjust it if necessary.
Observe the recommended tire pressure
(
Ypage 180).
iVehicles with tire pressure monitor: all
wheels mounted must be equipped with
functioning sensors.

Wheel and tire combinations
General notes
!
For safety reasons, smart recommends that
you only use tires and wheels which have
been specifically approved by smart for
your vehicle. These are specially adapted
to the control systems, such as ABS or ESP
®.
Only use tires and wheels specifically tes-
ted and approved by smart. Certain char-
acteristics, e.g. handling, vehicle noise
emissions or fuel consumption, may other-
wise be adversely affected. In addition,
when driving with a load, dimensional var-
iations and different tire deformation
characteristics could cause the tires to
make contact with the bodywork and axle
components. This could result in damage to
the tires or the vehicle.
