CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2)
If you have a puncture, re-
place the wheel as soon as
possible.
A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.
Anti-theft bolt
If you use anti-theft bolts, fit these
nearest the valve (wheel embel-
lisher may not be able to fit).
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on the
central hub and turn it to locate the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
Tighten the bolts and lower the jack.
With the wheels on the ground, tighten
the bolts as fully as possible and check
the tightness as soon as possible (tight-
ening torque 130 Nm).
