Wheel with wheel trim
When removing the wheel, first remove
the wheel trim by pulling at the valve aperture
using the wheelbrace.
When refitting the wheel, refit the wheel trim,
starting by placing its aperture in line with the
valve and then pushing it into place all round
its edge with the palm of your hand.
► To remove the wheel bolt cover on each of the
bolts, use tool7 (alloy wheels).
► Fit security socket2 on wheelbrace5 to
slacken the security bolt.
► Slacken the other bolts using the
wheelbrace5 only.
► Place the foot of jack6 on the ground and
ensure that it is directly below the frontA or
rearB jacking point on the underbody, whichever
is closest to the wheel to be changed.
► Extend jack6 until its head comes into contact
with jacking pointA or B; contact areaA or B on
the vehicle must be properly inserted into the
central part of the head of the jack.
► Raise the vehicle until there is sufficient space
between the wheel and the ground to admit the
spare (not punctured) wheel easily.
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 pointsA or B under the
vehicle, ensuring that the head of the jack is
centred under the contact area of the vehicle.
Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to the
vehicle and/or of the jack collapsing - risk of
injury!
► Remove the bolts and store them in a clean
place.
► Remove the wheel.
