slip or collapse - risk of injury!

Take care to position the jack strictly at

one of the jacking points A or B under the

vehicle, ensuring that the head of the jack is

centred under the contact area of the vehicle.

Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to the

vehicle and/or of the jack collapsing - risk of

injury!

►ꢀ Place the foot of jack 6 on the ground and

ensure that it is directly below the front A or

rear B jacking point on the underbody, whichever

►ꢀ Remove the bolts and store them in a clean

place.

►ꢀ Remove the wheel.

►ꢀ To remove the wheel bolt cover on each of the

bolts, use tool 7 (alloy wheels).

Visit a dealer or a qualified workshop as

soon as possible to have the tightness of

the bolts and the pressure of the spare wheel

checked.

Have the punctured tyre examined. After

inspection, the technician will advise you on

whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must

be replaced.

►ꢀ Tighten the security bolt using the

wheelbrace 5 equipped with a security socket 2.
