wheel is placed in the spare wheel
well, secure the tool box by

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.
● 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.
9 Warning
Do not grease wheel bolts.
9 Warning
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 of
each 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. Disengage wheel bolt caps with
the wheel bolt cover remover.
