When fitting
the
spare wheel
as
a
front
wheel replacement, reduce
to
the correct
tyre
pressure. The wheel may
then
be used normally and indefinitely.
When fitting
the
spare wheel
as
a rear wheel replacement, check
that
the
tyre
pressure
is
correct
for
the
rear. Only use
the
spare wheel on
the
rear for the
minimum distance possible before replacing
the
original wheel, and drive
at
a
lower speed
than
normal. When carrying
the
rear wheel in
the
front
compartment
the
normal spare wheel location
is
not
possible, and
the
straps
cannot
be
don&
up.
Lifting
Jack
The jack and
other
tools are with the spare wheel
in
the
front
compartment. Before
jacking up
the

the
hand brake firmly on. If
the

on
a gradient, place
chocks against the wheels which are
not
being raised.
In
use, the jack should be placed beneath the
front
lower wishbone
to
raise a front
wheel,
as
shown,
or
forward
of
the rear wheel arch
in
the position shown,
to
raise
a rear
wheel.

slacken
the
wheel nuts half a

anti clockwise.
Raise
the
•.vheel
with
the
jack, remove
the
wheel nuts, and remove the wheel from
the
studs.
