General information
If you use winter tyres 3, the spare wheel
may still be fitted with a summer tyre. If you
use the spare wheel when it is fitted with a
summer tyre the vehicle's driveability may
be affected, especially on slippery road
surfaces. Obtain a replacement for the
faulty tyre as soon as possible, and have
the wheel balanced and fitted to the
vehicle.

the tension on the straps by releasing the
ratchet assembly 1. Detach the strap from
the top left anchorage point using the
quick release clip 2.

Warning
Ensure the spare wheel is securely
restrained and the ratchet handle is
returned to its locked position.
Chassis mounted spare wheel 3
The chassis mounted spare wheel is
located horizontally under the centre rear
chassis.
It may be necessary to jack the vehicle up
to gain access to the spare wheel on a fully
loaded vehicle with a flat rear tyre.
To release the wheel, withdraw the two split
pins 2 3 and loosen the two fixings 1 on the
retaining assembly. With the retaining
assembly loosened, the spare wheel carrier
can be released and gradually lowered to
the ground.
When installing the wheel ensure that the
spare wheel carrier is correctly located
within the retaining assembly before
tightening the fixings. Ensure that the two
split pins 3, are reinstalled correctly.
