Wheels and tyres
●
Never loosen the screwed joints of wheel
rims with bolted ring trims.
●
If wheel nuts are tightened below the re-
quired torque, the bolts and rims could come
loose while driving. If tightening torque is too
high, the wheel nuts or threads can be dam-
aged.

Fig.197 Crossbar: mounting the jack on
the vehicle.
●
Rest the jack (vehicles tools) on rm ground.
If necessary use a large, strong board or similar
support. If the surface is slippery (for example
tiles) place the jack on a rubber mat or similar
to prevent it from slipping ››› .
●
Look on the crossbar for the mark of the
jack support point (sunken area) closest to the
wheel to be changed ›››Fig.196.
●
Turn the jack crank handle, located below
the crossbar support point, to raise it until the
tab
1
›››Fig.197 is below the housing that is
provided.
●
Align the jack so that the tab
1
“grips”
onto the housing provided on the cross mem-
ber and the mobile base

is resting on the
ground. The base plate

should fall vertically
with respect to the support point
1
.
●
Continue turning the jack until the wheel is
slightly lifted o the ground.
WARNING
The factory-supplied jack is only designed
for changing wheels on this model. On no
account attempt to use it for lifting heavier
vehicles or other loads. Risk of injury.
●
Make sure the jack remains stable. If the
surface is slippery or soft, the jack could slip
or sink, respectively, with the consequent
risk of causing injuries.
●
Lift the vehicle using only the jack supplied
from the factory. Other jacks, even those ap-
proved for other CUPRA models could slip,
with the consequent risk of injury.
●
Place the jack only at the support points
provided on the crossbar and align it. Other-
wise, the jack could slip because it does not
have suicient grip on the vehicle. Risk of
injury!
●
You should never place a body limb such as
an arm or leg under a raised vehicle that is
solely supported by the jack.
●
If you have to work underneath the vehi-
cle, you must use suitable stands additionally
to support the vehicle. Accident risk!.
●
Do not raise the vehicle if it is tilting to one
side or the drive system is switched on.
●
Do not switch on the drive system while the
vehicle is raised. The vehicle may come loose
from the jack due to the vibrations.
