Range Rover Evoque - TOOL KIT; REMOVING THE SPARE WHEEL

TOOL KIT
1. Temporary spare wheel locking ring.
2. Temporary spare wheel retaining bolt.
3. Tool kit retaining bolt.
4. Jack.
5. Wheel brace.
After use, the tools and jack
should be returned to the storage
area and correctly stowed.
Note: Examine the jack occasionally, clean
and grease the moving parts, particularly
the screw thread, to prevent corrosion.
REMOVING THE SPARE WHEEL
Remove the spare wheel prior to
jacking the vehicle, to avoid
destabilising the vehicle when
raised.
Wheels are heavy and if handled
incorrectly may cause injury. Use
extreme caution when lifting or
manoeuvring the wheels.
Always secure the spare wheel,
or the removed wheel, in the
correct position using the
retaining bolt.
After wheel changing, always
secure the tools, chocks, jack and
replaced wheel in their correct
stowage positions. Such objects,
if not properly stowed, can
become flying missiles in a crash
or rollover, potentially causing
injury or death.
Do not use power tools to loosen
the spare wheel. Doing so may
damage the mechanism.
1. To access the temporary spare wheel,
fold forward the rear edge of the cover
then remove it.
2. Turn the temporary spare wheel
locking ring counter-clockwise to gain
access to the retaining bolt.
3. Turn the retaining bolt counter-
clockwise until it comes free.
4. Remove the temporary spare wheel.
