CHANGING THE WHEEL
1) Loosen the fixing bolts of the
wheel to be replaced by about
one turn.
2) With alloy wheels, shake the
vehicle to detach the rim from
the wheel hub more easily.
3) Turn the jack's cranking device in
order to open it partially.
4) Arrange the jack at symbol B-fig. 114
close to the wheel to be replaced
and make sure than the groove A
of the jack is fitted firmly into side
member C.
fig. 114
5) Warn any bystanders that the
vehicle is about to be lifted. They
must stay clear and be warned
not to touch the vehicle until it is
back on the ground.
6) Operate the jack's cranking device
and lift the vehicle until the wheel
is several centimetres off the
ground. When turning the
cranking device, make sure that it
can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The
moving components of the jack
(screw and joints) can also cause
injuries: do not touch them.
If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.

7) Completely unscrew the 4 bolts
and remove the hub cap (where
provided) and the wheel to be
replaced.
8) Make sure that the spare wheel
contact surfaces are clean and
that impurities are not present so
that the fixing bolts will not come
loose. Fit the spare wheel, aligning
the holes A-fig. 115 with the pins
B as appropriate.
9) Tighten one of the bolts A-fig. 116
near inflation valve B.
