Wheel changing
To replace a road wheel:
— place the vehicle on level ground
and apply the handbrake;
— remove covers 1 (Fig. 40) or mat
and take out a pump, jack, tools and
replacement wheel. Spare wheel 2
(Fig. 41) is located in a will of the boot.
Remove the mat, then the cover and
unscrew bolt 1 to take out the wheel.
— remove the wheel cap (if instal-
led);
— slacken each nut of the affected
wheel one turn using box wrench 2
(Fig.42);
— locate jack 1 head so that the
nearest to the wheel sill rim enters the
notch in the jack head and the jack
base is exactly beneath it. Turn the jack
handle (Position I) until the wheel is
some 50-60 mm clear of the ground. If
the handle cannot be turned 360°, use
the smaller radius for rotation (Position
II);
— remove the bolts and lift off the
wheel. Position the spare wheel, fit the
bolts and tighten them uniformly using
the x-pattern;
— lower the vehicle to the ground
and remove the jack. Fully tighten the
bolts, check the tyre pressure and
pump up as necessary;
Stow away the tools into the boot,
fasten them with elastic straps and
replace covers.
