Safety notes
WA R N I N G
The jack is only intended for raising
the vehicle briefly during a wheel
change. Even if the safety measures are complied with, there is a risk of
the raised vehicle falling over due to
the jack slipping. There is a danger of injury or even death. If the vehicle is
raised with the jack, do not lie under-
neath the vehicle and do not start the engine.
WA R N I N G
Supports such as wooden blocks
under the vehicle jack can prevent it from achieving its load capacity due
to the restricted height. The load
capacity of the wooden blocks may be exceeded, causing the vehicle to tip
over. There is a danger of injury or
even death. Do not place supports under the vehicle jack.
WA R N I N G
The jack, issued by the vehicle manu-
facturer, is provided in order to per-
form a wheel change in the event of a breakdown. The jack is not designed
for frequent use; for example, chang-
ing from summer to winter tyres. Using the jack frequently may cause it
to become jammed or damaged.
There is a danger of injury and dam-
age to property. Only use the jack to change an emergency wheel or a
spare wheel in the event of a flat tyre.
WA R N I N G
On soft, uneven or slippery ground,
for example, snow, ice, tiles or similar,
the jack may slip. There is a danger of injury. Perform the wheel change on a
level, firm and non-slip surface if at all
possible.
WA R N I N G
The jack is only optimised for raising
the vehicle and for use with the jack-
ing points on the vehicle. There is a danger of injury. Do not lift another
vehicle or other items with the jack.
WA R N I N G
If the jack has not been guided into the jacking point provided, the vehicle
might be damaged when the jack is
extended, or the jack could slip. There is a danger of injury or damage to
property. When extending, make sure
that the jack is guided into the jacking point adjacent to the wheelhouse.

jack is extended perpendicular
to and at right angles below the
jacking point.
7 Raise by cranking until the jack
is supported on the ground with
its entire surface and the wheel
in question is at most 3 cm, 1.2
inches off the ground.
Only fit one emergency wheel at
most, as required.
1 Unscrew the wheel studs.
2 Remove the wheel.
3 Put on the new wheel or emer-
gency wheel and tighten at least
two wheel studs crosswise until
finger-tight.
If non-original light alloy wheels not
from the vehicle manufacturer are fit- ted, the wheel studs belonging to the
wheels may also have to be used.
4 Tighten the remaining wheels
studs until finger-tight and then
tighten all the wheel studs
crosswise.
5 Turn the jack crank anticlock-
wise to retract the jack and
lower the vehicle.

wise. The tightening torque is
140 Nm, approximately 101 lb ft.
2 Stow the faulty wheel in the
boot, if necessary.
3 Check tyre inflation pressure at
the next opportunity and correct
as necessary.
4 Reset the Tyre Pressure Monitor
