Removing a wheel

Wheel changes must always be carried out
correctly. The following instructions show
how to remove a wheel and what is impor-
tant to keep in mind.
Apply the parking brake and put the
gear selector in the Park (P) position.
•
•
2. Apply the parking brake and put the gear
selector in P, or first gear if the vehicle has
a manual transmission.
Block the wheels standing on the
ground, use rigid wooden blocks or
large stones.
For vehicles with Leveling Control*: If the
vehicle is equipped with pneumatic sus-
pension, this must be switched off before
the vehicle is lifted with the jack*.
When not in use, the jack* should be
kept in its storage compartment under
the cargo compartment floor.
•
•
Check that the jack is not damaged,
the threads are properly lubricated and
it is free from dirt.
•
•
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.
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-
slippery surface and that it is upright
and not leaning.
3. Take out the jack*, lug wrench* and tool for
removing the plastic covers, which are
stowed in the foam block.
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.

bolts.
4. Place chocks in front of and behind the
wheels that are still on the ground. For
example, use heavy wooden blocks or
large stones.
Never crawl under or allow any part of
your body to be extended under a vehi-
cle supported by a jack.

5. Using the lug wrench, screw the towing
eye into place as far as possible according
to the instructions.
8. When hoisting the vehicle, it is important
that the jack or garage lift arms are posi-
tioned on the designated points under the
vehicle. The triangle markings on the plas-
tic cover indicate where the jack attach-
ment points/lifting points are located.
There are two jack attachment points on
each side of the vehicle. There is a groove
for the jack at each attachment point.
10. Crank it up until it is properly aligned and
it is in contact with the vehicle's jack
attachment point. Make sure the top of
the jack (or the garage lift arms) is cor-
rectly positioned in the attachment point,
with the bump on the top of the jack in the
recess in the attachment point and the
base positioned vertically under the
attachment point.
11. Turn the jack so that the crank is as far as
possible from the side of the vehicle,
which will position the jack's arms per-
pendicular to the vehicle's direction of
movement.
12. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be
changed can move freely. Unscrew the
wheel bolts and lift off the wheel.
The towing eyelet must be screwed into
the lug wrench* as far as possible.
