Jack*
Use the jack to raise the car when changing a wheel.
Only use the original jack when fitting a spare wheel or when changing between summer andwinter wheels. The jack's thread must always bewell greased.
IMPORTANT
The tools and jack * must be stored in the
intended location in the car's cargo area when not in use.
The jack needs to be cranked together to the correct position in order to have space.
NOTE
The normal car jack is only designed for occa- sional, short-term use, such as when chang-ing a wheel after a puncture, changing to win-ter/summer wheels, etc. Only the jack for thespecific car model may be used to raise thecar. If the car is to be jacked up more often, orfor a longer time than is required just tochange a wheel, use of a garage jack is rec-ommended. In this instance, follow theinstructions for use that come with the equip-ment.
Applies to cars with level control *
If the car is equipped with air suspension then this must be deactivated before the car is raisedwith the jack. Switch off the function via the centre display:1.
