•
Remove bolts from the wheel, place
them on a clean surface (for example, in
the hub cap, cloth, paper, etc.) beside the
jack, and take the wheel off.
•
Fit the spare wheel and slightly tighten
all bolts. These bolts must be perfectly
clean and never greased or oiled.
•
Lower the vehicle and firmly tighten the
bolts crosswise.
•
On vehicles with a normal spare wheel,
fit the wheel trim again.
•
Place the defective wheel in the well of
the luggage compartment and secure it
with the wing nut.
Instructions
•
When using the emergency minispare
wheel, or any other spare wheel which dif-
fers from those on the vehicle, always
remember the points listed on pages 3.60
and 3.53.
•
After changing the wheel, observe
these points:
– Immediately check the tyre pressure of
the new wheel which has been fitted.
– As soon as possible, have the tighten-
ing torque of the wheel bolts checked
with a torque wrench. The torque is
110 Nm.
When changing the wheel, if the bolts are
found to be corroded and hard to screw
in, they must be replaced.
Until they can be replaced, drive at a mod-
erate speed for safety reasons.
•
The punctured tyre should be
repaired as soon as possible, which
should be replaced by the normal
wheel (with its wheel cover) immedi-
ately after repairing the tyre.
Warning
If the vehicle is to be subsequently
fitted with wheels or tyres which
differ from those fitted by the Fac-
tory, it is essential to read the
instructions in the centre and right
hand columns on page 3.61.
