In an Emergency
NOTE:
The compact spare wheel is supplied in
aluminum or steel: the pictures show
the one in aluminum.
The compact spare wheel is stored in
the trunk and is supplied deflated in
order to limit the amount of space
occupied. An electric compressor is also
provided for inflating. In the event of
a tire puncture, proceed as follows.
• Stop the vehicle in a place that does
not constitute a danger to traffic and
where the wheel can be changed
safely. The vehicle must be level and
on firm ground.
• Select the P (Park) mode and then
engage manually the electric parking
brake and move the ignition device
to OFF position.
• If necessary, turn the hazard warning
flashers on and place the warning
triangle (if equipped) at the required
distance.

WARNING!
The jack should be used on level firm
ground wherever possible.
It is recommended that the wheels
of the vehicle be chocked, and that
no person should remain in a vehicle
that is being jacked.
278
If the vehicle has been stopped on
a slope or an uneven surface, place
chocks or other suitable items in
front of or behind the wheels to stop
the vehicle from moving.
Never start or run the engine with
the vehicle on a jack.
• Lift the ground coverage of the
trunk (see chapter "Tool Kit" in this
section).
• Take the tools (indicated in picture)
for changing the wheel from the
container.
• Unscrew and pull out the spare wheel
locking knob.
• Take the tool box container, the
compressor and the compact spare
wheel out of the trunk.
• Fit the adapter on the wrench.
Extend the wrench as shown, then
loosen by approximately one turn,
the five bolts on the wheel to be
changed. In case a wheel security
stud bolt is installed, it can only
be removed by using the specific
fitting wrench insert provided with
the "Wheel Security Stud Bolt
Kit", available in the "Genuine
Accessories" range. In this case, the
insert must be installed on the kit
wrench.
