WHEELS AND TIRES
* Option/accessory. 556
Installing a wheel
Wheel changes must always be carried out
correctly. The following instructions show
how to install a wheel and what is important
to keep in mind.
CAUTION
•
When not in use, the jack
*
should be
kept in its storage compartment under
the cargo compartment floor.
•
The jack provided with your vehicle is
intended to be used only in temporary
situations such as changing wheels in
the event of a flat tire. Only the jack
that came with your particular model
should be used to lift the vehicle. If the
vehicle needs to be lifted more fre-
quently or for a prolonged period, using
a garage jack or hoist is recommended.
Always follow this device's instructions
for use.
WARNING
•
Apply the parking brake and put the
gear selector in the Park (
P ) position.
•
Block the wheels standing on the
ground, use rigid wooden blocks or
large stones.
•
Check that the jack is not damaged,
the threads are properly lubricated and
it is free from dirt.
•
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-
slippery surface and that it is upright
and not leaning.
•
The jack must correctly engage in the
jack attachment.
•
No objects should be placed between
the base of the jack and the ground, or
between the jack and the attachment
bar on the vehicle.
•
Never let anyone remain in the vehicle
when it is raised on a jack.
•
If a tire must be changed near passing
traffic, make sure all passengers move
to a safe location.
•
Use a jack intended for the vehicle
when changing a tire. For any other
job, use stands to support the vehicle.
•
Never crawl under or allow any part of
your body to be extended under a vehi-
cle supported by a jack.
The vehicle must be raised high enough so
that the wheel you are removing can turn
freely.
1. Clean the contact surfaces between the
wheel and the wheel hub.
2. Lift the wheel into place. Tighten the
wheel bolts securely.
Do
not
grease the wheel bolt threads.
3. Lower the vehicle so that the wheel can-
not rotate.
