Changing wheels/tires
General information
When tire sealants are used, an immediate
wheel change when there is a loss of tire infla‐
tion pressure in the event of a flat tire is not al‐
ways necessary.
If needed, the tools for changing wheels are
available as accessories from a dealer’s service
center or another qualified service center or re‐
pair shop.
Safety information
WARNING
On soft or slippery ground, e.g., snow,
ice, tiles, etc., the vehicle jack can slip away.
There is a risk of injury. If possible, change the
tire/wheel on a flat, solid and slip-resistant sur‐
face.◀
WARNING
The vehicle jack is only provided for
short-term lifting of the vehicle for wheel
changes. Even if all safety measures are ob‐
served, there is a risk of the raised vehicle fall‐
ing, if the vehicle jack tilts over. There is a risk
of injuries or danger to life. If the vehicle is
raised, do not lie under the vehicle and do not
start the engine.◀
WARNING
The vehicle jack is optimized for lifting
the vehicle and for the jacking points on the
vehicle only. There is a risk of injury. Do not lift
any other vehicle or cargo using the vehicle
jack.◀
WARNING
If the vehicle jack is not inserted into the
designated jacking point, damage to the vehi‐
cle may occur while cranking the vehicle up, or
the vehicle jack can slip away. There is a risk of
injury or risk of property damage. Make sure
that the vehicle jack is inserted into the jacking
point next to the wheel house while cranking
the vehicle up.◀

ditionally secure the vehicle against rolling
