Changing A Wheel; Replacing A Wheel - Lancia Delta Owner's Handbook Manual

REPLACING A WHEEL

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The vehicle can be provided with (if requested, for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) a small spare wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of the jack and of the
small spare wheel call for some precautions as listed
below.
The small spare wheel (for versions/markets,
where provided) is specific for your car. Do
not use it on different models of car. Do not
use spare wheels from different models on your car.
The small spare wheel must only be used in an
emergency. Never use it for more than strictly nec-
essary and never exceed 80 km/h. On the small
spare wheel there is an orange label, summarizing
the main warnings regarding small spare wheel us-
age restrictions.
IN AN EMERGENCY
Never remove or cover the label. Never apply
any hub cap on the small spare wheel. The
label contains the following indications in
four languages: Warning! For temporary use only!
80 km/h max! Replace as soon as possible with a
standard service wheel. Never cover this indication.
If you choose to install wheels of a different type
(with alloy rims instead of steel ones) you must al-
so change all the wheel retaining bolts with others
of a suitable size.
Indicate that the car is stationary according
to the laws in force: hazard warning lights,
refracting warning triangle, etc. Passengers
should leave the car, particularly if it is very loaded
and wait for the wheel to be changed away from on-
coming traffic. In the event of a wheel change on a
slope or on unsurfaced roads, chock the wheels.
