4. Jack up your vehicle until the tire is
clear of the ground.
5. Remove the lug nuts and the wheel.
Installing a Road Wheel
WARNINGS
Use only approved wheel and tire
sizes. Using other sizes could
damage your vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid. See
Technical Specifications (page 177).
Make sure that there is no lubrication
(grease or oil) on the threads or the
interface between lug studs and
nuts.
Note: Make sure the wheel and hub contact
surfaces are free from foreign matter.
Note: Make sure that the cones on the lug
nuts are against the wheel.
Note: You can also use the lug nuts of alloy
wheels for the steel spare wheel.
1. Install the wheel.
2. Install the lug nuts finger tight.
3. Install the locking lug nut key.
4. Partially tighten the lug nuts in the
sequence shown.
5. Lower your vehicle and remove the
jack.
6. Fully tighten the lug nuts in the
sequence shown. See Technical
Specifications (page 177).
7. Install the wheel trim.
WARNING
Have the lug nuts checked for
tightness and the tire pressure
checked as soon as possible.
Note: If the spare wheel is different in size
or construction to the road wheels, have this
replaced as soon as possible.
Stowing the Wheel
WARNING
Do not raise the spare wheel carrier
without the wheel attached. Damage
can occur to the winch mechanism
if lowered without a wheel attached.
Make sure that the spare wheel is secure.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM
WARNING
The tire pressure monitoring system
is not a substitute for manually
checking tire pressures. You should
check the tire pressure periodically using
a tire gauge, see When Inflating the Tires
in this chapter. Failure to correctly maintain
tire pressures could increase the risk of tire
failure, loss of control, vehicle rollover and
personal injury.
