2019 MASERATI GRANTURISMO CONVERTIBLE wheel bolts

• Remove from the compressor casethe inflation hose and the cable with
a plug for the power outlet.
• Unscrew the valve cap of the compact spare wheel and screw the
fitting of the inflation hose onto the
valve.
• Insert the plug in one of the available power outlets fitted in the
trunk or passenger compartment.
• Turn the key in the ignition switch in MAR (ON) position.
• Turn the compressor on by pressing the switch.
• Stop the compressor pressing switch again, when the pressure indicated
by the gage reaches the
recommended level (see “Tire
Inflation Pressure” in section
“Features and Specifications”) and
screw the cap on the compact spare
wheel valve.
CAUTION!
• In order to obtain a more accurate reading, the compressor should be
switched off when checking the tire
pressure of the compact spare wheel
on the pressure gage.
• Do not run the compressor for more than 20 minutes: there is a risk it
could overheat. Also, prolonged
power absorption may discharge the
battery, subsequently preventing the
engine from starting.
• The compressor has been designed exclusively to inflate compact spare
wheels; do not use it to inflate air
mattresses, dinghies etc.
• Fit the adapter on the wrench. Extend
the wrench as shown, then
loosen by approximately one turn, the five bolts on the wheel to be
changed.
• Open the jack partially, releasing and turning the control lever clockwise.
• Place the jack near the wheel to be changed in one of the indicated
positions.
• Make sure that the head of the jack is correctly inserted in one of the
slots beneath the sole bar.

WARNING!
• Never position yourself under a
jacked vehicle.
• The lifted vehicle may fall and
damage the vehicle's body if the jack
is not positioned correctly. •
Never use the jack to carry out
maintenance or repairs under the
vehicle.
• Turn the jack lever until the wheel is raised
a few centimeters off the
ground.
• Completely unscrew the five bolts and remove the wheel. In case a
“Wheel Security Stud Bolt” is
installed, it can only be removed by using the specific fitting wrench
provided with the “Wheel Security
Stud Bolt Kit”, available in the
Genuine Accessories range.
• Fit the compact spare wheel with the valve stem facing outward, securing
it with the five bolts previously
removed.
• Turn the lever of the jack to lower the vehicle and remove the jack.
• Fully tighten the bolts, alternately tightening diametrically opposite
following the sequence shown in the
picture.
WARNING!
• Observe the tightening torque for
the bolts securing the wheels (72 ±
7 lbf·ft / 98 ± 10 Nm). This is
equivalent to a load of

approximately 44 lb (20 kg) being
placed on the handle of the wrench
supplied when extended for use.
• After refitting the standard wheel,
check the tire pressure.
WARNING!
• The spare wheel is narrower than
standard wheels and must only be
used to travel the distance required
to reach a service station, where the
punctured tire can be repaired or
replaced.
• Do not exceed a maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) when using the
compact spare wheel; when this
limit is exceeded, the stability, road
holding and braking of the vehicle
will be compromised. Avoid
accelerating to full speed, heavy
braking and fast cornering.
• The compact spare wheel must be
inflated to the recommended tire
pressure (see “Tire Inflation
Pressure” in section “Features and
Specifications”).
• For safety reasons, it is absolutely
forbidden to drive with more than
one compact spare wheel fitted on
the vehicle. •
Snow chains cannot be fitted on the
compact spare wheel.
• The spare wheel can travel a
maximum of 1,800 mi (3.000 km).
NOTE:
The
used wheel may soil the mats if it
is housed in the car: insert the used
wheel in the protective bag housed in
the side pocket of the covering bag.
To Refit the Standard Wheel with
Repaired or Replaced Tire
• Following the procedure and the caution described above, raise the
vehicle and remove the compact
spare wheel reusing the supplied
wrench with adapter, suitably
extended.
• Fit the standard wheel with repaired or replaced tire.
• Tighten the original bolts on the wheel.
• Lower the vehicle and remove the jack.
• Fully tighten the bolts, alternately tightening diametrically opposite.
WARNING!
• Observe the tightening torque for
the bolts securing the wheels (72 ±
7 lbf·ft / 98 ± 10 Nm). This is
equivalent to a load of
approximately 44 lb (20 kg) being
placed on the handle of the wrench
supplied when extended for use.
• After refitting the standard wheel,
check the tire pressure.
Once finished:
•
completely deflate the compact
spare wheel by pressing on the valve
with the overhang of the valve cap;
• wrap the power cable and the inflation hose inside the compressor
case;
• place the compressor, the jack, the wrench and the adapter in the
