CHANGING A WHEEL
Remove the hubcap (see Hubcap
section).
Loosen the nuts using the
wheelbrace 1, pulling upwards.
Insert the jack horizontally, the jack
head must be slid under the lower
part of the bodywork nearest the
wheel concerned.
Unscrew the jack by hand at first to
align the base plate (which should
be positioned slightly further under
the car than the jack head). Use a
piece of wood under the base plate
if the car is on soft ground.
Insert end 2 of the wheelbrace into
the jack 3 and turn it several times
to lift the wheel off the ground:
Remove the bolts.
Take off the wheel.
Position the emergency spare wheel
on the hub and turn it so that the
holes in the wheel and the hub are
in alignm ent.
Tighten the bolts and lower the jack.
With the wheels on the ground,
tighten the bolts as much as
possible and get a RENAULT Dealer
to check the tightness of the bolts as
soon as possible (tightening torque
105 Nm).
Park the car on flat, firm
ground (if necessary, insert
a solid support under the
baseplate of the jack), and
turn on the hazard warning lights.
Apply the handbrake and put the
caringear(firstorreverse,or
position P for automatic
transmission).
Ask all the occupants to leave the
car and keep them away from
traffic.
If you have a puncture,
replace the wheel as soon
as possible.
A tyre w hich has been
punctured should always be
inspected (and repaired if possible)
by a specialist.
