Emergencies
Changing a wheel
What to do first
●
Park the vehicle on a horizontal surface and
in a safe place as far away from traffic as
possible.
●
Apply the handbrake.
●
Switch on the hazard warning lights.
●
Position the selector lever in N or P .
●
Keep the vehicle tool kit
›››
page 34 and
the spare wheel* available.
●
Observe the applicable legislation for each
country (reflective vest, warning triangles,
etc.).
●
All occupants should leave the vehicle and
wait in a safe place (for instance behind the
roadside crash barrier).
WARNING
●
Always observe the above steps and pro-
tect yourself and other road users.
●
If you change the wheel on a slope, block
the wheel on the opposite side of the car
with a stone or similar to prevent the vehi-
cle from moving.

Removing
●
Take the wheel brace and the wire hook
from the vehicle tool kit

the trim.

Fitting
●
Press the trim against the wheel so that the
hole for the valve fits over the tyre valve.
●
Make sure that the trim is correctly fitted all
the way around the wheel. If you are using an
anti-theft wheel lock, screw it in the opposite
position to the valve.

The caps protect the wheel bolts and should
be remounted after changing the tyre.
The anti-theft wheel locking bolt has a
special cap. This only fits on anti-theft locking
bolts and is not for use with standard wheel
bolts.
