Fitting the spare wheel
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.
● Place a chock under the wheel
diagonally opposite the wheel to be
changed.
● Remove the spare wheel.
● Never change more than one wheel
at once.
● Use the jack only to change wheels
in case of puncture, not for seasonal
winter or summer tyre change.
● The jack is maintenance-free.
● If the ground on which the vehicle is
standing is soft, a solid board
(approx. 1 cm thick) should be
placed under the jack.
● Take heavy objects out of the vehicle
before jacking up.
● 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.
● Before screwing in the wheel bolts,
clean them.

WARNING
Ensure to use always the correct wheel
bolts if changing the wheels. When
installing the spare wheel for temporary
usage, the bolts for alloy wheel rims can
also be used.
● Note that the spare wheel is secured
by the conical contact of each bolt if
the wheel bolts for the alloy wheel
rims are used. In this case, the
washers do not come into contact
with the spare wheel.
1. Disengage wheel bolt caps with the
wheel bolt cover remover.
Steel wheel rims with cover: Pull off
the wheel cover.
2. Attach the wheel wrench and loosen
each wheel bolt by half a turn.
The wheels might be protected by
locking wheel nuts. To loosen these
specific nuts first attach the adapter
onto the head of the nut before
installing the wheel wrench. The
adapter is located in the tool box.
