CHANGING A WHEEL

Please note:

– the jack weighs 3.4 kg;

– the jack requires no adjustments;

– the jack cannot be repaired. If it

breaks it must be replaced with a new
jack;

– no tool with the exception of the

handle can be fitted on the jack.

Proceed as follows:

1) Stop the car in a position that is

not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel safe-
ly. The ground should be flat and ad-
equately firm.

2) Turn the engine off and pull up the

handbrake.

3) Engage first gear or reverse or, for

versions with automatic electronic
gear, select P.

4) Lift the boot mat (see the relative

instructions in the “Bonnet” paragraph
of “Getting to know your car” chap-
ter).

5) Remove lever A-fig. 3.

6) Remove protective cover B and

use ring C to release the elastic band
D, then extract jack E.

7) Close the bonnet and place the

tools next to the wheel to be changed.

8) Open the tailgate and use ring A-

fig. 4 to lift and turn cap B protect-
ing the spare wheel lock bolt C.
