Keep the vehicle away from traffic and on a level surface, where it cannot slide.

Apply the parking brake and leave the vehicle in gear (in first gear or reverse, or in the P position for automatic vehicles).

Ask all passengers to leave the vehicle and keep them away from traffic.

If necessary, remove the wheel trim.

If the vehicle is parked on the hard shoulder, you must warn other road users of your vehicle’s presence with a warning triangle or with other devices as per the legislation applying to the country you are in.

Position the jack 2 horizontally. The jack head should be aligned with the sill closest to the affected wheel in the position indicated by arrow 3.

Begin by turning the jack manually, positioning the jack support plate 4 in the lightly cut groove between the two notches 5 in the direction of the arrow 3.

Continue to turn the jack so that the base plate is correctly positioned (it must be below the vehicle and must be aligned with the head of the jack).

Turn it several times to lift the wheel off the ground.

warning

To prevent any risk of injury or damage to the vehicle, only crank the jack until the wheel you are replacing is a maximum of 3 centimetres off the ground.

Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.

Fit the emergency spare wheel on the central hub and turn it to locate the mounting holes in the wheel and the hub.

When the emergency spare wheel is supplied with bolts, use these bolts only for the emergency spare wheel.

Tighten the bolts, checking that the wheel is correctly positioned on its hub and lower the jack.

With the wheel on the ground, tighten the bolts fully and check the tightness of the bolts and the pressure of the spare tire as soon as possible.
