t OOLS
The tools for changing a wheel are lo-
cated in the luggage compartment
under the carpets. When storing the
tools, ensure the jack is correctly
clipped in, with base plate B towards
the bottom.
The tools included in the tool kit depend
on the vehicle.
Jack 1
Fold it and position retainer A correctly
before refitting it in its housing.

This tightens or releases the tow eye 3.
t ow eye 3
Please see “Towing: breakdown recov-
ery” in Section 5.
Hubcap tool 4
This tool is used to remove the wheel
trims.
Wheelbrace 5
Allows the wheel bolts to be locked/un-
locked.
Wheel locking nut
Storage compartments are provided in
the support to house these.
Do not leave the tools un -
secured inside the vehicle
as they may come loose
under braking. After use,
check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then posi -
tion it correctly in its housing: risk of
injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the
tool kit, only use these bolts for the
emergency spare wheel: refer to the
label affixed to the emergency spare
wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel
changing purposes only. Under no
circumstances should it be used for
carrying out repairs underneath the
vehicle or to gain access to the un-
derside of the vehicle.
Nothing should be placed
on the floor area in front of
the driver as such objects
may slide under the pedal
during braking manoeuvres, thus
obstructing its use.

align the base plate (which should be
pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts
off the ground.
Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on the

To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
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.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.
