- b) Loosen the wheel nuts to be replaced by one turn.
- V) Install the jack next to the wheel to be changed in the appropriate place (see section "car jacking")
Note:
- Make sure the jack is properly installed. Raising the vehicle with an incorrectly positioned jack can damage the vehicle or cause it to slip off the jack.
- Never stand under a vehicle if the vehicle is only supported by a jack.
- Only use the jack to raise the vehicle when changing a wheel.
- Do not lift the vehicle if anyone is inside.
- G) Turning the jack handle, raise the car, unscrew the wheel nuts and remove the wheel.
Note: Raise the vehicle only high enough to remove or change a wheel.
- d) Before installing the wheel, remove rust from the mounting surface with a wire brush or similar tool. Mounting a wheel without good metal-to-metal contact on the mounting surface can loosen the wheel nuts and even cause the wheel to come off while driving. Therefore, after the first 1600 km, check the reliability of the fastening of the nuts.
- e) Install the spare wheel and hand-tighten the mounting nuts.
