This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
→ Preparations for changing a wheel
→ Wheel bolts→ Lifting the vehicle with the jack
→ Changing the wheel→ After changing a wheel
Some models are delivered without a factory-fitted jack or box spanner. If this is the case, have the wheel changed by a qualified workshop.
Only change the wheel yourself when the car is parked in a safe place, you are familiar with the necessary actions and safety procedures and you have access to all the correct tools. Use expert assistance if this is not the case.
