EMERGENCIES
Ensure no one is in the vehicle. Raise it high enough so that
the spare tyre can be installed. Remember you will need more
ground clearance when putting on the spare tyre than when
removing the flat tire.
CAUTION
!
Make sure to set the jack properly in the jacking
point. Raising the vehicle with jack improperly
positioned will damage the underbody of vehicle or
may allow the vehicle to fall off the jack and cause
personal injury.
• Use the jack only for lifting your vehicle during
wheel changing
• Do not raise the jack with someone in the vehicle.
• When raising the vehicle, do not place any objects
on top of or underneath the jack.
• Raise the vehicle only high enough to remove and
change the wheel.
• Follow jacking instructions
• Do not start or run the engine while your vehicle is
supported by the jack.
WARNING
!
Never get under the vehicle when the vehicle is
supported by the jack alone.
Remove the wheel nuts. Lift the flat tyre straight off and
place it aside. Roll the spare wheel into position and align the
holes in the wheel with the bolts. Lift up the wheel and get at
least the top bolt started through its hole. Wiggle the wheel
and press it back over the other bolts.
WARNING
!
Before putting on the wheels, remove any corrosion on
the mounting surfaces with a wire brush or such.
Installation of wheels without good metal to metal
contact at the mounting surface can cause wheel nuts
to loosen and eventually cause a wheel to come off
while driving.
Reinstall the wheel nuts with the tapered end inward and
tighten by hand. Press the wheel inward and tighten the
wheel nuts further.
WARNING
!
Never use oil or grease on the bolts or nuts. Doing so
may lead to over tightening the nuts, wheel nut
spanner slip, damage the bolts and also may cause
