Tightening torque for steel wheels is
125 Nm.
Use the correct wheel bolts for the respective wheels.
Jacking positions The jacking positions shown refer to
the use of lifting arms and accessory
jacks used for changing winter /
summer tyres.
The rear arm position of the lifting
platform is centrically under the
relevant vehicle jacking point.
The front arm position of the lifting
platform is centrically under the
relevant vehicle jacking point.
Spare wheel The spare wheel is located in a holder
beneath the vehicle floor.
The tools are in a box in the left front
seat 3 234.
Use the jack only on the specific
jacking positions 3 244.
The spare wheel can be classified as
a temporary spare wheel depending
on the size compared to the other
mounted wheels and country
regulations. In this case a permissible maximum speed applies, even
though no label at the spare wheel
indicates this.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. Do not drive faster than
50 mph. Take curves slowly. Do not
use for a long period of time.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that is smaller than the other wheels or in
combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
If the vehicle is equipped with a trailer hitch, lift the back of the vehicle on
one of the rear vehicle jacking points
for easier access to the spare wheel.
1. Depending on the version, open the tailgate or the rear doors.

2. Remove the cover of the carrierbolt, located on the rear door sill
3. Fit the wheel wrench on thehexagon bolt. Turn it
anticlockwise until the spare wheel holder is low enough to
allow the catch to be unhooked.
4. Lift the spare wheel holder and unhook the catch.
Lower the spare wheel holder.
5. Remove the spare wheel.
6. Change the wheel.
7. Position the damaged wheel with the outside down in the spare
wheel holder.
8. Lift the spare wheel holder and engage in the catch. The open
side of the catch must point in the
direction of travel.
9. Close the spare wheel holder by turning the hexagon bolt
clockwise using the wheel
wrench.
10. Stow wheel wrench in the storage.
11. Close the tailgate or the rear doors.
Vehicle care247Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. The permissible maximum
speed on the label on the temporary
spare wheel is only valid for the
factory-fitted tyre size.
Fitting the spare wheel
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-skid surface. The front
wheels must be in the straight- ahead position.
● If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be changed.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or
P .
● Remove the spare wheel 3 245.
● Never change more than one wheel at once.
● 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.
● Take heavy objects out of the vehicle before jacking up.
● 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 vehicle when it is
raised on the jack.
● Before screwing in the wheel bolts, clean them.9Warning
Do not grease wheel bolts.
9Warning
Ensure to use always the correct
wheel bolts if changing the
wheels. When installing the spare
wheel, the bolts for alloy wheels can also be used.
● Note that the spare wheel is secured by the conical contact ofeach bolt if the wheel bolts for the
alloy wheels are used. In this
case, the washers do not come
into contact with the spare wheel.
1. Steel wheels with cover: Pull off the wheel cover with the
designated tool 3 234.
Alloy wheels: Disengage wheel
bolt caps with the designated tool
3 234.
Vehicle care249
Attach wheel wrench and with the
jack correctly aligned rotate wheel wrench until wheel is clear of the
ground.
5. Unscrew the wheel bolts. 6. Change the wheel. Spare wheel 3 245.
7. Screw on the wheel bolts.
8. Lower the vehicle and remove jack.
9. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it is located securely and
tighten each bolt in a crosswise
sequence. Tightening torque is
115 Nm.
If the vehicle is equipped with
alloy wheels, note that the wheel
bolts can also be used for the steel spare wheel. In this case, the
spare wheel is secured by the
conical contact of each bolt.
10. Align the valve hole in the wheel cover with the tyre valve before
installing.
Install wheel bolt caps.
11. Stow the replaced wheel 3 245,
the vehicle tools 3 234 and the
adapter for the security wheel bolts.
12. Check the tyre pressure of the installed tyre and the wheel bolttorque as soon as possible.Jump starting
Do not start with quick charger.
A vehicle with a discharged vehicle
battery can be started using jump
leads and the vehicle battery of
another vehicle.9 Warning
