The life span of a space-
saver spare wheel (where
fitted) is approximately
3000 km, after which it will need
to be replaced with another spare
wheel of the same type. Never fit a
standard tyre on the spare-saver
spare wheel rim.
Have the wheel replaced and re-
fitted as soon as possible. Never
use two or more spare wheels at
the same time.
Do not lubricate the bolt threads
before fitting them back: they
could come loose.
The jack should only be used to
change a wheel on the car for
which it was designed. It should
not be put to other uses or em-
ployed to raise other models of car.
Under no circumstances should it
be used when carrying out repairs
under the car.
An incorrectly positioned jack
may cause the car to fall.
Do not use the jack to lift
loads exceeding that indi-
cated on the label attached
to the jack itself.
Do not fit snow chains on space-
saver spare wheels (where fitted).
If a front wheel (drive wheel) is
punctured and you require snow
chains to proceed, take a standard
wheel from the rear axle and fit
the space-saver spare wheel in its
place. Having fitted two standard
wheels on the drive axle, you can
use snow chains, thus solving the
emergency situation.
The wheel cap may fly off when
the car is moving if it is not fas-
tened correctly. Never tamper with
the inflation valve. Do not insert
tools between the rim and the tyre.
Check the tyre and spare wheel
pressure regularly. Tyre pressure
is shown in the "Technical Speci-
fications" chapter.
CHANGING A WHEEL
Please note:
– The jack weighs 2.05 kg.
– The jack requires no adjustments.
– The jack cannot be repaired. If it
breaks it must be replaced with a gen-
uine spare part.
– No other tool, part from the han-
dle, can be fitted to the jack.
The car may be equipped with a
regular size spare wheel.
