wheel, when fi tting it, it is normal when
tightening the bolts to notice that the
washers do not come into contact with
the rim. The spare wheel is secured by
the cone shape of each bolt.
VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN *
The very cold climate screen is a par-
tial removable cover which is fi xed
onto the air intake grille to prevent the
accumulation of snow due to direct
splashes.
Once it has been fi tted on your ve-
hicle, it must be removed when the
