Fig. 194 Sill: positioning the vehicle jack
> Place the vehicle jack from the vehicle tool kit
ona firm surface. Use a flat, stable support if
necessary. On a slippery surface such as tile,
you should use a non-slip pad such as a rubber
mat > /\.
> Find the marking on the sill that is closest to
the tire that will be changed > fig. 193. Behind
the marking, there is a lifting point on the side
sill for the vehicle jack.
> Turn the vehicle jack located under the mount-
ing point on the sill to raise the jack until its
arm @) ° fig. 194 is located under the desig-
nated mounting point.
> Align the vehicle jack so the arm (@) engages in
the designated mounting point in the side sill
and the base (2) lies flat on the ground. The
base (2) must be directly under the mounting
point @).
> Continue raising the vehicle jack until the wheel
lifts off the ground slightly.


— Make sure the vehicle jack is stable. There is
a risk of injury when the ground is slippery
or soft, because the vehicle jack could slide
or sink.
— Only raise your vehicle with the vehicle jack
provided by the factory. If you use a vehicle
jack designed for another vehicle, your vehi-
cle could slip and cause injury.
— Position the vehicle jack only at the desig-
nated mounting points on the side sill and
align the jack. Otherwise, the vehicle jack
could slip and cause an injury if it does not
have sufficient hold on the vehicle.
—To reduce the risk of injury, do not raise any
other vehicles or other loads using the vehi-
cle jack provided by the factory.
—To reduce the risk of an accident, never start
the engine when the vehicle is raised.
—To reduce the risk of injury, support the vehi-
cle securely with suitable stands if work is to
be performed underneath the vehicle.


Z\ WARNING
—To reduce the risk of injury, make sure no
one is in the vehicle before raising it.

@) Note
Do not lift the vehicle by the sill. Position the
vehicle jack only at the designated mounting
points on the side sill. Otherwise, your vehicle
could be damaged.

Removing and mounting a wheel
@ Rg Tt

B8K-1477



Fig. 196 Wheel: alignment pin in the top hole
Removing a wheel
> Remove the top wheel bolt completely using
the hex socket in the screwdriver handle from
the vehicle tool kit > fig. 195 and place it ona
clean surface.
> Then install the alignment pin from the vehicle
tool kit in the empty wheel bolt hole by hand
> fig. 196.
> Remove the rest of the wheel bolts.
>» Remove the wheel >). The alignment pin re-
mains in the hole while doing this.
Installing a wheel
Read the directions on > page 273 when instal-
ling unidirectional tires.
> Slide the wheel on over the alignment pin >@.
> Install the wheel bolts and tighten them gently
using the hex socket.
> Remove the alignment pin and tighten the re-
maining wheel bolt.
> Carefully lower the vehicle using the vehicle
jack*.
> Tighten the wheel bolts in a diagonal pattern
using the wheel wrench.
The wheel bolts must be clean and loosen and
tighten easily. Check the contact surfaces for the
wheel and hub. Contaminants on these surfaces
must be removed before installing the wheel.

ZA\ WARNING
— Read and follow the important information
and notes under > page 247.
— Never use the hex socket in the screwdriver
handle to tighten the wheel bolts. Using the
hex socket will not achieve the required
tightening torque, which increases the risk
of an accident.
() Note
When removing or installing the wheel, the
rim could hit the brake rotor and damage the
rotor. Work carefully and have a second per-
son help you.
Unidirectional tires
A unidirectional tire profile is identified by arrows
on the tire sidewall that point in the running di-
rection. You must always maintain the specified
running direction. This is necessary to ensure the
tire's optimum performance in regard to adhe-
sion, running noise, and friction, and to reduce
the risk of hydroplaning.

To benefit fully from the advantages of the uni-
directional tire design, you should replace faulty
tires as soon as possible and restore the correct
running direction on all of the tires.
> Reinstall the caps on the wheel bolts if necessa-
ry.
> Store the vehicle tool kit in its designated
place.
> If the removed wheel does not fit in the spare
wheel well, store it securely in the luggage
compartment > page 50.
> Check the tire pressure on the installed wheel
as soon as possible.
> Check the tire pressure and store it in the Info-
tainment system. >

Emergency assistance

If the vehicle should be towed with the axle
raised, then the ignition must be switched off to
reduce the risk of damage to the drivetrain.
Tow bar and towing cable
The vehicle can be towed with a tow bar or tow-
ing cable. Both drivers should be familiar with
the special considerations when towing, especial-
ly when using a towing cable.
Always make sure the traction force does not ex-
ceed the permitted level and there are no shock
loading conditions. There is always the risk of the
coupling becoming overloaded when driving off-
road.
For the most safety and security, drive with a tow
bar. You should use a towing cable only if a tow
bar is not available. Use a towing cable made of
synthetic elastic cable similar elastic material.

ZA\ WARNING
— Towing highly increases the risk of an acci-
dent, for example from colliding with the
towing vehicle.
— To reduce the risk of an accident, do not al-
low anyone to remain inside the vehicle
when it is being transported by a tow truck
or a special transporter.

@) Note
— If normal towing is not possible, for exam-
ple if the transmission is faulty or if the
towing distance is greater than 30 miles
(50 km), then transport the vehicle on a
special carrier.
— If the vehicle is towed by a tow truck at the
axle that is not permitted, this can cause se-
vere damage to the transmission.
— The vehicle must not be tow started for
technical reasons.
@) Tips
—If there is a power failure, the selector lever
will not move out of the "P" position. The
parking lock must be released using the

D_ Requirement: the vehicle battery must have a sufficient
charge level.
emergency release before towing the vehi-
cle > page 68.
— Follow the local legal regulations for tow-
ing.
Read and follow the important information under
=> page 274.
Preparations
> Only secure the towing cable or tow bar at the
designated towing loops > page 276,
=> page 276.
> Make sure the towing cable is not twisted. Oth-
erwise it could disconnect from the towing loop
while towing.
» Switch the emergency flashers on in both vehi-
cles > page 40. However, do not do this if it
prohibited by law.
Towing vehicle (front)
> Only start to drive when the towing cable is
taut.
> Be especially careful when accelerating.
> Avoid sudden braking or driving maneuvers.
Vehicle being towed (rear)
» Make sure the ignition is switched on so that
the steering wheel is not locked and so that you
can use the turn signals, the horn, and the
windshield wipers if needed > A\.
> The brake booster only works when the engine
is running. Power steering only works when the
ignition is switched on and the vehicle is roll-
ing )). If the brake booster and power steering
are not functioning, you must press the brake
pedal much harder and use more force to steer.
> Release the parking brake > page 59.
> Select the "N" selector lever position.
> Make sure the towing cable is always taut.
