IN THE EVENT OF A PUNCTURE
If a puncture occurs whilst driving the vehicle:
1. Bring the car to rest as soon as it is safe to
do so and with the minimum amount of
braking required which will assist in main-
taining the maximum amount of control. The
vehicle should be parked wherever possible
upon firm level ground to facilitate wheel
changing.
2. If the vehicle is creating a hazard and the
road conditions do not permit the wheel to
be changed safely, assistance should be
sought.
3. Passengers must not be allowed to remain
inside the vehicle during wheel changing. If
a puncture occurs whilst the vehicle is on a
motorway, the passengers should take ref-
uge on the motorway embankment to avoid
the possibility of injury occurring should the
vehicle be struck by other motorway traffic.
4. Wheel changing should be performed ac-
cording to the following instructions.

exercised when changing road wheels. Ensure
that the parking brake is set and that the gear
shift lever is in reverse (P, if the vehicle has
automatic transmission).
