CHANGING A WHEEL
JACK
115) 116) 117) 118) 119) 120)
Please note that:
the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
the jack requires no adjustment;
the jack cannot be repaired and in the
event of a fault it must be replaced by
another genuine one;
no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
Jack maintenance:
prevent any dirt from depositing on
the "worm screw";
keep the "worm screw" lubricated;
never modify the jack.
Conditions in which not to use the jack:
temperature below -40°C
on sandy or muddy ground
on uneven ground
on steep roads
in extreme weather conditions:
thunderstorms, typhoons, hurricanes,
blizzards, storms, etc.
in direct contact with the engine or to
carry out repairs under the vehicle
on boats.
To change a wheel, proceed as follows:
stop the car in a position that is not
dangerous for oncoming traffic where
you can change the wheel safely. The
ground must be flat and sufficiently
compact;
switch off the engine, pull up the
handbrake and engage the 1stgear or
reverse. Wear the reflective safety jacket
(compulsory by law) before getting out of
the vehicle;
open the luggage compartment, lift
the mat using the tab provided;
using wrench 1 fig. 90 located in the
tool box, loosen the locking device, take
the tool box 2 and place it close to the
wheel to be replaced, then take the
space-saver wheel 3;
take the wrench 1 fig. 91 and loosen
the fixing bolts by about one turn. For
versions with alloy rims, shake the car to
facilitate detachment of the rim from the
wheel hub;
position the jack under the car, near
the wheel to be changed. On versions
where this is fitted, be careful not to
damage the plastic aerodynamic guard;
operate the device 1 fig. 92 so as to
raise the jack, until the upper part is
correctly inserted in the side member at
the point indicated by the arrow
fig. 92. The lifting points 3 are shown
in fig. 93.

114
IN AN EMERGENCY

alert any bystander that the vehicle is
about to be raised; all persons should be
kept away from the vehicle and nobody
must touch it until it has been lowered;
fit handle 2 fig. 92 into the housing in
device 1, operate the jack and raise the
vehicle until the wheel is a few
centimetres from the ground;
35)
for versions with wheel cap, remove
the wheel cap after loosening the
4 fastening bolts and finally loosen the
fifth bolt and remove the wheel;
make sure the contact surfaces
between space-saver wheel and hub are
clean so that the fastening bolts will not
come loose;
fit the space-saver wheel by inserting
the first bolt for two threads into the hole
closest to the valve;
take the wrench 1 fig. 90 and fully
tighten the fixing bolts;
operate the jack handle 2 fig. 92 to
lower the car. Then extract the jack;
use the wrench 1 fig. 90 provided to
fully tighten the bolts in a criss-cross
fashion as per the numerical sequence
illustrated in fig. 94;
when replacing an alloy wheel it is
advisable to place it upside down, with
the aesthetic part facing upwards.
Restore the standard wheel as soon as
possible, because, once placed in the
associated compartment, the luggage
compartment load platform is rendered
uneven as the standard wheel is larger
than the spare wheel.
36)
REMOVING THE SUBWOOFER (versions
with Bose HI-FI)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IMPORTANT The following procedure
only applies to cars equipped with Bose
Hi-Fi systems with subwoofer (for
versions/markets, where provided).
Subwoofer and space-saver spare wheel
On these versions, the tools needed for
changing the wheel are arranged in a
specific container on the left-hand side of
the luggage compartment (see fig. 95 ).
The jack is stored in a pocket also on the
left-hand side of the luggage
compartment.
Proceed as follows to remove the
subwoofer:
open the luggage compartment, lift
the mat using the tab provided and
remove the load compartment spacer;
93A0K0904C
94A0K0040C
95A0K0235C
115

unscrew the locking device 1 fig. 96,
remove the clip 2 fastening the cable and
then lift the subwoofer;
rest the subwoofer on the side of the
luggage compartment and take the
space-saver wheel;
replace the wheel as described
previously.
At the end of the operation:
reposition the subwoofer correctly
(see indications on the label applied over
the subwoofer itself), so that the word
“BOSE” is positioned in the right direction
for reading;
reposition the subwoofer wire
correctly to avoid pinching it. Then fasten
the clip 2 and fasten the locking device 1.
Finally, position the load compartment
spacer fig. 95 correctly and lower the
mat.Subwoofer and “Automatic Fix&Go Kit”
Locating the Automatic Fix&Go Kit:
open the luggage compartment, lift
the mat using the tab provided;
take the “Automatic Fix&Go kit”
located on the left-hand side of the
luggage compartment (see fig. 97 );
inflate the tyre (see paragraph entitled
“Fix&Go Automatic Kit”).
IMPORTANT If you need to remove the
subwoofer, follow the indications shown
on the adhesive label fig. 97 on the
subwoofer itself to reposition it
correctly.
WARNING
115)The space-saver wheel is specific for
your car. Do not use it on cars of different
models. Do not use space-saver wheels of
different models on your car. The
space-saver wheel must only be used in the
event of an emergency. Never use it for more
than strictly necessary and never exceed
80 km/h. On the space-saver wheel there is
an orange label, summarising the main
warnings regarding space-saver wheel
usage restrictions. Never remove or cover
the label. Never apply any hub cap to the
space-saver wheel.
116)Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the car, especially if it is heavily
laden. Passengers should stay away from
on-coming traffic while the wheel is being
changed. On hills or uneven roads, use
chocks or appropriate objects to block the
wheels of the vehicle.

IN AN EMERGENCY

117)The vehicle's driving characteristics
will be modified with the space-saver wheel
fitted. Avoid violent acceleration and
braking, abrupt steering and fast cornering.
The overall duration of the space-saver
wheel is about 3000 km, after which the
relevant tyre must be replaced with another
one of the same type. Never install a
traditional tyre on a rim designed to be used
as a space-saver wheel. Have the wheel
repaired and refitted as soon as possible.
Using two or more space-saver wheels at the
same time is forbidden. Do not apply grease
to the bolt threads before fitting: they could
come unscrewed.
118)The jack may be used to replace
wheels only on the car that it comes with or
other cars of the same model. Never use the
jack for other purposes, such as lifting other
vehicle models. Never use it for repair
operations under the vehicle. Incorrect
positioning of the jack may cause the vehicle
to fall. Do not use the jack for loads higher
than the one shown on its label. Never install
snow chains on the space-saver wheel; if a
front tyre (driving wheel) is punctured and
you need to use snow chains, use a standard
wheel from the rear axle and install the
space-saver wheel on the rear axle. In this
way, with two normal front drive wheels, it is
possible to use snow chains.
119)Incorrectly fitting the wheel cap may
cause it to fall off when the car is in motion.
Never tamper with the inflation valve. Never
introduce tools of any kind between rim and
tyre. Regularly check the inflation pressure
of the tyres and space-saver wheel (see
chapter "Technical specifications").120)The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a tyre
gets punctured or damaged, on the vehicle
with which it is supplied or on other vehicles
of the same model. Any other use, e.g. to jack
up other vehicle models or different things,
is strictly prohibited. Never use for
maintenance or repair activities under the
car or to exchange the summer/winter
wheels and vice versa. Never go under the
raised vehicle. Should it be necessary to
work under the vehicle, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership. Incorrect positioning of
the jack may cause the raised vehicle to fall:
use only in the positions indicated. Do not
use the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. Never start the engine
with vehicle raised. If the vehicle is raised
more than necessary, everything can
become more unstable, with the risk of the
vehicle dropping violently. Thus, lift the
vehicle only as needed in order to access the
spare wheel.
IMPORTANT
35)When turning the jack handle make sure
that it can turn freely without scraping your
hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw" and
joints) can also cause injuries: avoid touching
them. If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.
36)Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as
soon as possible to have the correct
tightening of the wheel bolts checked.
