Breakdown assistance
WARNING
It is necessary to observe the guidelines given on  page 215 if the vehicle is
subsequently fitted with tyres which are different to those it was fitted with at
the works.
Note
If you find, when changing the wheel, that the wheel bolts are corroded and
difficult to turn, the bolts must be replaced before checking the tightening torque.
Drive cautiously and only at a moderate speed to a workshop where the tight-
ening torque can be checked.
Full wheel trim
Pulling off
Hook the clamp found in the vehicle tool kit into the reinforced edge of the full
wheel trim.
Push the wheel key through the clamp, support the wheel key at the tyre and
pull off the wheel trim.
Installing
First press the full wheel trim onto the wheel at the valve opening provided.
Then press the full wheel trim into the wheel in such a way that its entire
circumference locks correctly in place.
Caution
Use the pressure of your hand, do not knock on the full wheel trim! Heavy
knocks mainly on the points where the full wheel trim has not been inserted into
the wheel, can result in damage to the guide and centering elements of the full
wheel trim.
Check for yourself that the safety wheel bolt is located in the hole in the area of
the valve before fitting the full wheel trim onto a steel wheel which is attached with
a safety wheel bolt  page 224, "Securing wheels against being stolen".
