turn the lever (1) clockwise until the
jack bracket is firmly inserted in the
lifting area (2) fig. 277 of the underdoor
side member
position the jack directly below the
jacking point in a manner that prevents
it from slipping fig. 278
WARNING Ensure that the jack is stable.
If the ground is slippery or loose, the
jack may slip or collapse - risk of injury!
Take care to position the jack strictly
at one of the jacking points under the
vehicle, ensuring that the head of the
jack is centred under the contact area on
the vehicle. Otherwise, there is a risk of
damage to the vehicle and/or of the jack
collapsing - risk of injury!

the adapter for the locking wheel nut
lower the vehicle and remove the jack
install the wheel wrench ensuring
that it is located securely and tighten
each bolt in a crosswise sequence. If the
vehicle is equipped with alloy wheels,
note that the wheel bolts can also be
used for the steel spare wheel. In this
case, the spare wheel is secured by the
conical contact of each bolt
stow the replaced wheel, the vehicle
tools and the adapter for the locking

be stored in place of the spare wheel.
Place it in the boot
check the tyre pressure of the installed
tyre and the wheel nut torque as soon as
possible
WARNINGS
Never change more than one wheel at
once.
Use the jack only to change wheels in
case of puncture, not for seasonal winter
or summer tyre change.
The jack is maintenance-free.
If it should it be absolutely necessary
to operate on the road surface or near
it, pay the utmost attention to cars in
transit
Pay particular attention when using
the wrench to remove the wheel
fastening bolts: it may have sharp edges
Raising the car more than necessary
may lower its stability. The jack may slip
and injure those nearby. Do not raise the
car more than required for the removal of
the wheel
Tyres with unidirectional tread can
be recognised by arrows on the side of
the tyre which indicate the direction of
rotation. It is mandatory to comply with
this direction. Only in this way, tyres
maintain their characteristics in terms
of grip, noise, resistance to wear and
drainage on wet surfaces
If, after a puncture, it is necessary to
fit such a tyre the wrong way round, it
will be necessary to continue driving with
great care, since the tyre’s performance
is limited in these conditions. This
precaution must be borne in mind above
all when the road surface is wet
In order to benefit completely from the
unidirectional tread, it is advisable to
restore all wheels to the correct direction
of rotation as soon as possible
Make sure that the spare wheel is
fitted with the valve facing outwards.
The wheel may be damaged if fitted
incorrectly
If the car has a hub cap or wheel
cover, do not attempt to fit it on the
spare wheel
