CHANGING A WHEEL
Dimension of the spare wheel
If your spare wheel is of a different
dimension to those on the vehicle
(identied by a label), it is essential
to use it only on a temporary basis,
to drive not above 80 km/h (50 mph)
and to have the original wheel ret-
ted as soon as possible.
Tyre pressures
This is indicated on a label in the
front door aperture.
Switch on your hazard warning
lamps.
Never get underneath the
vehicle if it is supported only
by the jack; use an axle stand.
The jack is designed
specically for your vehicle,
do not use it for other
applications.
Ret the repaired original
wheel as soon as possible.
With a spare wheel tted, drive
with caution.
Light alloy wheels
If your vehicle is equipped with
light alloy wheels and a steel spare
wheel, then if tting the latter it is
normal to note that the heads of the
wheel bolts do not come to bear on
the wheel rim.
The steel spare wheel is secured
by the conical tapering of the wheel
bolts’ shafts, see diagram.
When retting the light alloy wheel,
ensure that the wheel bolt heads are
in undamaged condition.
