GENERAL INFORMATION
(G859659)
CAUTIONS
Use only approved wheel and tyre
sizes. Using other sizes could
damage the vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid.
If you change the diameter of the
tyres from that fitted at the factory,
the speedometer may not display
the correct speed. Take the vehicle to
your dealer to have the engine
management system reprogrammed.
A decal with tyre pressure data is located
in the driver’s door opening at the B-pillar.
Check and set the tyre pressure at the
ambient temperature in which you are
intending to drive the vehicle and when
the tyres are cold.
CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL
(G1085119)
Locking wheel nuts
You can obtain a replacement locking
wheel nut key and replacement locking
wheel nuts from your dealer using the
reference number certificate.
Vehicles with a temporary
spare wheel
WARNINGS
If the spare wheel differs from the
other fitted wheels, these rules must
be followed:
Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
Drive the shortest possible
distances.
WARNINGS
Do not fit more than one spare
wheel on your vehicle at any one
time.
Note:
Your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.
Vehicle jack
WARNINGS
The vehicle jack supplied with your
vehicle should only be used when
changing a wheel in emergency
situations.
Before using the vehicle jack, check
that it is not damaged or deformed
and that the thread is lubricated and
free from foreign matter.
Never place anything between the
jack and the ground, or the jack and
the vehicle.
Note:
Vehicles with a tyre repair kit are
not equipped with a vehicle jack or a
wheel brace.
It is recommended to use a workshop
type hydraulic jack for changing between
summer and winter tyres.
Note:
Use a jack with a minimum lifting
capacity of one tonne (one ton) and a
lifting plate with a minimum diameter of
80 millimetres (3.1 inches).
Your vehicle jack and wheel brace are
located in the spare wheel well.
Jacking and lifting points
CAUTION
Use only the specified jacking points.
If you use other positions, you may
damage the body, steering,
suspension, engine, braking system or
the fuel lines.
