In the event of a breakdown
Never go underneath a vehicle that is
supported only by a jack (use an axle stand).
Never use an electric screwdriver instead of
the wheelbrace.
Refitting the repaired wheel
The wheel is refitted in the same way as the
spare wheel; don't forget to refit the wheel trim.
For more information on identification
markings, including the tyre label, refer to
the corresponding section.
For more information on tyre under-
inflation detection, including
recommendations after changing a wheel
with a tyre under-inflation detection
sensor, refer to the corresponding section.
F
Secure the carrier on the hook, then raise
the carrier by tightening the bolt with the
wheelbrace.
F
Tighten the bolt fully and check that the
wheel is held flat against the floor.
If not, repeat the procedure.
Fitting the wheel trim on
the rim
The valve of the wheel must be centred against
the notch on the wheel trim.
This position is essential to fit the wheel trim
properly on the metal rim. (In case of incorrect
positioning of the valve in line with the notch,
the anti-rotation system will be in contact with
the bolt heads and may be damaged if the user
persists in fitting the wheel trim in this incorrect
position).
- Make sure that the wheel trim's outer edge is
not pressed against the rim or lowered into it:
Correct wheel trim position.
