Lug wrench and towing eyelet
Screw the towing eyelet into the lug wrench
as shown in the illustration.
CAUTION
The towing eyelet must be screwed into the
lug wrench as far as possible.
6. With the vehicle still on the ground, use the
lug wrench/towing eyelet to loosen the
wheel bolts ½ – 1 turn by exerting downward
(counterclockwise) pressure.
7. When hoisting the vehicle, it is essential that
the jack (or garage lift arms) are positioned
correctly on the underside of the vehicle.
There are two jack attachment points on
each side of the vehicle and there is a groove
in the plastic cover at each attachment point.
Position the jack under the attachment point
to be used on a level, firm, non-slippery sur-
face and crank it up until it is correctly
aligned and seated in the attachment point.
The pin on the jack's head must be posi-
tioned in the hole in the attachment point.
8. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be
changed is lifted off the ground. Remove the
wheel bolts.
