Note:
Do not raise the spare wheel bracket
without a wheel attached. Damage to the
winch mechanism could occur.
Vehicle Jack WARNING: Do not work on your
vehicle when the jack is the only support
as your vehicle could slip off the jack.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death. WARNING:
To help prevent your
vehicle from moving when changing a
wheel, shift the transmission into park
(P), set the parking brake and use an
appropriate block or wheel chock to
secure the wheel diagonally opposite to
the wheel being changed. For example,
when changing the front left wheel,
place an appropriate block or wheel
chock on the right rear wheel. WARNING:
Do not attempt to
change a tire on the side of the vehicle
close to moving traffic. Pull far enough
off the road to avoid the danger of being
hit when operating the jack or changing
the wheel. WARNING:
Always use the jack
provided as original equipment with your
vehicle. If using a jack other than the one
provided, make sure the jack capacity is
adequate for the vehicle weight,
including any vehicle cargo or
modifications. If you are unsure if the jack
capacity is adequate, contact the
authorized dealer. WARNING:
Switch off the running
boards before jacking or placing any
object under your vehicle. Never place
your hand between the extended running
board and your vehicle. A moving running
board may cause injury. Note:
Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Note: Vehicles with a Temporary Mobility
Kit do not have a vehicle jack or a lug
wrench.
Vehicle Jack Storage The jack, jack handle and wheel brace are
in a storage compartment in the front
right-hand side stepwell.
Note:
The vehicle jack is in the load space
area on vehicles with rear climate control.

Removing a Road Wheel WARNING: Park your vehicle so
that you do not obstruct the flow of
traffic or place yourself in any danger and
set up a warning triangle. WARNING:
Switch the ignition off
and apply the parking brake. WARNING:
If your vehicle has a
manual transmission, shift into first or
reverse gear. If your vehicle has an
automatic transmission, shift into park
(P). WARNING:
Make sure all
passengers are out of your vehicle. WARNING:
Make sure that your
vehicle is on firm and level ground with
the front wheels pointing straight ahead. WARNING:
Chock the diagonally
opposite wheel to the punctured tire with
an appropriate block or wheel chock. A
wheel chock may be in the B-pillar or in
a storage compartment in the front
right-hand side stepwell. WARNING:
Make sure that the
arrows on directional tires point in the
direction of rotation when your vehicle
is moving forward. If you have to fit a
spare tire with the arrows pointing in the
opposite direction have the tire refitted
as soon as possible.
1. Use the locking lug nut key to loosen the locking lug nut.
2. Loosen the remaining lug nuts, but do not remove them.
3. Raise your vehicle until the tire is clear of the ground.
4. Remove the lug nuts and the road wheel.

down on the ground.
Installing a Road Wheel WARNING:
Use only approved
wheel and tire sizes. Using other sizes
could damage your vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid. WARNING:
Make sure there is no
grease or oil on the threads or the
surface between the wheel lugs and
nuts. This can cause the lug nuts to
loosen while driving.

WARNING: When you install a
wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt
or foreign materials present on the
mounting surfaces of the wheel or the
surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make
sure to secure any fasteners that attach
the rotor to the hub so they do not
interfere with the mounting surfaces of
the wheel. Installing wheels without
correct metal-to-metal contact at the
wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to
come off while your vehicle is in motion,
resulting in loss of vehicle control,
personal injury or death. WARNING:
Only use the specific
lug nuts and wheels supplied with your
vehicle. If in doubt, contact an authorized
dealer. WARNING:
Do not install alloy
wheels using lug nuts designed for use
with steel wheels. WARNING:
The lug nuts of alloy
wheels and spoked steel wheels can also
be used for the steel spare wheel for a
short time (maximum two weeks).
1. Install the wheel. 2. Install all of the lug nuts and partially
tighten them in the sequence shown.
3. Lower your vehicle and remove the vehicle jack.
4. Fully tighten all of the lug nuts in the sequence shown.
5. Install the wheel trim.
Note: Make sure that the lug nuts are fully
seated against the wheel.
Note: Alloy wheel lug nuts are suitable for
use on a steel spare wheel.
Note: If the spare wheel is not the same
type and size as your vehicle road wheel
replace it as soon as possible.
