WARNING
The factory-supplied jack is only designed
for changing wheels on this model. On no
account attempt to use it for lifting heavier
vehicles or other loads. Risk of injury.
•
Make sure the jack remains stable. If the
surface is slippery or soft, the jack could slip
or sink, respectively, with the consequent
risk of causing injuries.
•
Lift the vehicle using only the jack supplied
from the factory. Other jacks, even those ap-
proved for other CUPRA models could slip,
with the consequent risk of injury.
•
Place the jack only at the support points
provided on the strut and align it. Otherwise,
the jack could slip because it does not have
sufficient grip on the vehicle: risk of injury!
•
You should never place a body limb such as
an arm or leg under a raised vehicle that is
solely supported by the jack.
•
If you have to work underneath the vehi-
cle, you must use suitable stands additionally
to support the vehicle, there is a risk of acci-
dent!.
•
Do not raise the vehicle if it is tilting to one
side or the drive system is switched on.
•
Do not switch on the drive system while the
vehicle is raised. The vehicle may come loose
from the jack due to the vibrations.
NOTICE
•
The vehicle must not be raised on the
crossbar. Place the jack only at the support
points provided on the strut and align it. Oth-
erwise, the vehicle may be damaged.
•
Any type of load or weight applied to the
external trim/door will (stepped on, fitting
the jack, resting heavy objects, etc.) can
cause damage to it. CUPRA accepts no re-
sponsibility for any damages caused by im-
proper use of the external trim or body.
Removing and installing a wheel
Change the wheel after loosening the wheel
bolts and raising the vehicle with the jack.
When removing/fitting the wheel, the rim may
hit and damage the brake disc. For this reason,
please take care and get a second person to
assist you.
Taking off the wheel
•
Unscrew the bolts with the wheel wrench
and place them on a clean surface.
•
Remove the wheel.
Putting on the spare wheel
Check the direction of rotation of the tyre
•
Place the spare wheel or temporary spare
wheel into position.
•
Screw in the wheel bolts and tighten them a
little with the wheel wrench.
•
Use the appropriate adapter to tighten the
anti-theft wheel bolts.
•
Carefully lower the vehicle using the jack.
•
Use the wheel spanner to tighten all of the
wheel nuts clockwise. Tighten the bolts in di-
agonal pairs (not in a circle).
•
Put the caps, trim or full hubcap back on.
The wheel bolts should be clean and turn
easily. Before fitting the spare wheel, inspect
the wheel condition and hub mounting surfa-
ces. These surfaces must be clean before fit-
ting the wheel.
Tightening torque of the wheel nuts
The prescribed tightening torque for wheel
bolts for steel and alloy wheels is
120 Nm
. After
changing a wheel, have the tightening torque
checked immediately with a torque wrench
that is working perfectly.
Before checking
tightening torque, have any
rusty wheel bolts that are difficult to screw re-
placed and clean the wheel hub threads.
Never apply grease or oil to wheel bolts or to
the wheel hub threads. Even if the bolts have
been tightened to the prescribed torque, they
could come loose while driving.
