Handling the spare wheel
Follow these instructions for handling the spare
wheel.
The spare wheel is located in the spare wheel
well with the outside down. The same bolt runs
through to secure the spare wheel and the foam
block. The foam block contains all the tools for
changing a wheel.
1. Fold up the cargo area floor, from the rear
and forwards.
2. Undo the retaining screw.
3. Lift out the foam block with its tools.
4. Lift out the spare wheel.
Storing the punctured tyre
1. Place the punctured tyre back in the space
for the spare wheel.
2. Put the tools back in their right place in the
foam block and lift it back into the car.
3. Screw in the foam block using the mounting
screws and then fold down the cargo area
floor.
NOTE
If the lower attachment of the mounting
screw loosens from the body underneath the
spare wheel, refit it in the hole and turn clock-
wise to reattach it.
4. Place the punctured tyre in the cargo area.
