3  202.
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-slippery surface. The
front wheels must be in the
straight-ahead position.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first gear or reverse gear
(manual transmission) or  N
(manual transmission
automated).
● Switch off the air suspension system  3 138.
● Remove the spare wheel  3 208.
● Never change more than one wheel at a time.
● Use the jack only to change wheels in case of puncture, not
for seasonal winter or summer
tyre change.
● The jack is maintenance-free.● If the ground on which the vehicle
is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be
placed under the jack.
● No people or animals may be in the vehicle when it is jacked-up.
● Never crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.
● Do not start the engine when the vehicle is raised on the jack.
● Clean wheel bolts/nuts and their threads before mounting thewheel.9 Warning
Do not grease wheel bolt, wheel
nut and wheel nut cone.
1. Remove the wheel cover using the hook supplied. Vehicle tools
3  196.
Depending on vehicle, first
remove the bolt/nut covers by
hand then remove the wheel
cover, or press wheel cover at the points indicated by the arrows and
