Emergency Information

Changing a Wheel

If you need to change the wheel during the journey, choose
a safe place to stop away from the main road if possible.
Always ask your passengers to get out of the car and wait
in a safe area away from other traffic.
Switch on hazard warning lamps. If available, position
a warning triangle about 50 to 150 metres behind your
vehicle to warn approaching traffic.
Before changing a wheel, ensure the front wheels are in the
straight ahead position. Apply the parking brake and place
the gear shift lever of transmission in N (MT) or P (AT)
position.
Observe the following precautions:
• Ensure the jack is positioned on firm, level ground.
• If the vehicle must be parked on the hill, place chocks
in front of and behind other 3 wheels to prevent the
vehicle moving.
