fitting ratchet spanner 2 so that you
press downwards, rather than pull
upwards.
Check the tightening/loosening
direction of the ratchet spanner:
reverse the spanner if it does not
work,
_ Insert the jack horizontally, the jack
head pin should line up with hole 3
in the lower part of the bodywork
nearest to the wheel concerned.
Crank up the jack by hand at first to
align the base plate (which should
be inclined further inwards than the
jack head). Place a plank of wood
under the base plate if on soft
ground.
Insert socket 1 and jack the wheel
off the ground.
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove
the centre hubcap.
Take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel onto
the hub.

the nuts and lower the jack.

and check the tightness as soon as
possible (tightening torque

If you have a puncture,
replace the wheel as soon
as possible.
