Vehicle care
9 Warning
All passengers must be out of the
vehicle when it is being jacked.
Only jack the vehicle on hard, level
surfaces.
Ensure moving parts of the jack
are adequately lubricated before
use.
Use the jack only at the
designated lifting points. Use in
other locations may cause the
vehicle to fall off the jack, or may
damage the vehicle.
If using a jack (or hoist) other than
the jack supplied with the vehicle,
refer to the following pages in this
chapter for the correct lifting
positions.
Do not start or run the engine while
the vehicle is supported by the
jack.
Use the jack only for lifting the
vehicle when changing wheels.
Do not get under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack. No person
should place any portion of their
body under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.
Vehicles with alloy wheels may
have a steel spare wheel. Drive
carefully and do not exceed
80 km/h when a combination of
alloy and steel wheels are fitted on
the vehicle. Although the spare
tyre was fully inflated when the
vehicle was new, it can lose air
over time. Check the inflation
pressure regularly. After installing
the spare wheel on the vehicle,
stop as soon as possible to check
the inflation pressure is correct.
Have the flat tyre repaired or
replaced and installed back on the
vehicle as soon as possible.
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
■ Park the vehicle on a level, firm and
non-skid surface. The front wheels
must be in the straight-ahead
position.
■ Apply the parking brake and
engage first gear, reverse gear or
P.
■ Chock the wheel diagonally
opposite the flat tyre with a suitable
solid object.
■ Remove the spare wheel and tools
from inside the boot. The tools are
located in the storage compartment
underneath the spare wheel
3 176.
■ Never change more than one wheel
at once.
■ Use the jack only to change wheels
in the event of puncture.
■ If the ground on which the vehicle
is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be placed
under the jack.
■ No people or animals may be in the
vehicle when it is jacked up.
■ Never crawl under a jacked-up
vehicle.
■ Do not start the vehicle when it is
raised on the jack.
■ Clean wheel nuts and thread before
replacing the wheel.
