Replacing a wheel
Undo the wheel nuts with wrench 1
fig. 262.
Position the jack 2 fig. 263 horizontally
so that its head 3 fig. 263 coincides
with the hole under the chassis nearest
to the wheel concerned.
Start raising the jack to rest the base
correctly (it should be slightly under the
vehicle and aligned with the jack head).
Undo the nuts and remove the tyre.
Position the spare tyre in the centre of
the hub.
Tighten the nuts and lower the jack.
When the tyre is on the ground, tighten
the screws hard and check their
tightness as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT If you are using
tamper-proof screws, position them as
close as possible to the valve (it could
be impossible to fit the wheel plate).
WARNING
173)
Activate hazard warning lights Park
the vehicle far from traffic on level, resistant
and not slippery ground. Pull up the
handbrake and engage a gear. Get all the
occupants out of the car and far from
traffic.
174)
It is extremely dangerous to attempt
to change a wheel on the side of the
vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure
that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
175)
Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc to show that your vehicle is
stationary. Passengers should get out of
the vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
loaded, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the traffic.
176)
The spare tyre is not the same size as
the other four. Never fit more than one
spare tyre on the same vehicle. The
standard wheel is larger than the spare
wheel, so the vehicle will be lower. Replace
the spare tyre as soon as possible with a
tyre identical to the original. While in use,
which has to be temporary, your speed
should not exceed that indicated on the
wheel's label. If you have to use snow
chains, fit the spare tyre on the rear axle
and check the tyre pressures. Fitting this
tyre can alter the vehicle's normal
behaviour. Avoid accelerating or braking
abruptly and lower your speed on curves.
177)
Never leave tools haphazardly in the
vehicle: if you brake suddenly, they could
scatter around the floorboards, causing a
hazard to the occupants. After use, be sure
to fasten the tools in the tool bag, then
place it correctly in its position: risk of
injuries. The jack must only be used for
changing a wheel. It should never be used
to raise the vehicle to perform a repair
underneath.
178)
There should be no objects at the
driver's feet: in case of sharp braking, they
could slide under the pedals, preventing
their correct use.
