Removing a Road Wheel
WARNINGS
Park your vehicle so that you do not
obstruct the flow of traffic or place
yourself in any danger and set up a
warning triangle.
Switch the ignition off and apply the
parking brake.
If your vehicle has a manual
transmission, move the transmission
selector lever to first or reverse gear.
If your vehicle has an automatic
transmission, move the transmission
selector lever to position P.
Make sure all passengers are out of
your vehicle.
Make sure that your vehicle is on firm
and level ground with the front
wheels pointing straight ahead.
WARNINGS
Chock the diagonally opposite wheel
to the punctured tire with an
appropriate block or wheel chock. A
wheel chock may be located in the B-pillar,
in the storage compartment in the front
right-hand side stepwell or inside the spare
wheel.
Make sure that the arrows on
directional tires point in the direction
of rotation when your vehicle is
moving forward. If you have to fit a spare
wheel and tire with the arrows pointing in
the opposite direction have the tire refitted
as soon as possible.
1. Insert the flat end of the wheel brace
between the rim and the wheel trim
and carefully remove the wheel trim.
2. Use the locking lug nut key to loosen
the locking lug nut.
3. Loosen the remaining lug nuts, but do
not remove them.
4. Raise your vehicle until the wheel and
tire is clear of the ground.
5. Remove the lug nuts and the road
wheel.
Note: Do not lay alloy road wheels face
down on the ground.
Installing a Road Wheel
WARNINGS
Use only approved wheel and tire
sizes. Using other wheel and tire sizes
could damage your vehicle and will
make the National Type Approval invalid.
See Technical Specifications (page 192).
Make sure there is no lubrication
(grease or oil) on the threads or the
surface between the wheel lugs and
nuts. This can cause the lug nuts to loosen
while driving.
