EMERGENCIES
Snap-fit Wheel Cover Removal (if equipped)
Wrap the tip of a screw driver with cloth, insert it near the
lugs of the wheel cover and pry the cover away from the
wheel.
CAUTION
!
Do not try to pry off the wheel cover by hand alone.
Take due care in handling the wheel cover to avoid
unexpected personal injury.
Wheel Nut Loosening
Always loosen the wheel nuts before raising the vehicle. Turn
the wheel nuts counter clockwise to loosen. To get maximum
leverage, fit the spanner to the nut so that the handle is on
the right side. Grab the spanner near the end of the handle
and push down on the handle. Be careful that the spanner
does not slip off the nut. Do not remove the nuts, but loosen
them by one or two turns.
CAUTION
Do not apply force with your legs (or stand) on the
wheel spanner while tightening the wheel nuts.
Block the wheel diagonally opposite the flat tyre to keep the
vehicle from rolling when it is jacked up. When blocking the
wheel, place a wheel block in front of one of the front wheels
or behind one of the rear wheels.
