wheel bolts.
- Pull the reversible blade from the screwdriv­

the handle to turn the wheel bolts.
Emergency assistance
-When mounting tires with unidirectional
tread design
make sure the tread pattern is
pointed the right way¢
page 245 .
-The wheel bolts shou ld be clean and easy to
t ur n. Check for dirt and corrosion on the
mating surfaces of both the wheel and the
hub. Remove all dirt from these surfaces be­
fore remounting the wheel.
Tires with unidirectional tread design
Tires with unidirectional tread design must be
mounted with their tread pattern pointed in the
right direction .
U sing a spare tire with a tread pattern
intended for use in a specific direction
When using a spare t ire with a tread pattern in­
tended for use in a specific direction, please note
the following:
- The direct ion of rotation is marked by an arrow
on the side of the tire.
- If the spare tire has to be insta lled in the incor­
rect direction, use the spare tire only tempora­
r ily since the tire w ill not be able to achieve its
optimum performance characteristics with re­
gard to aquaplaning, noise and wear .
- We recommend that you pay part icular atten­
tion to th is fact during wet weather and that
you adjust your speed to match road condi­
tions.
- Replace the flat tire with a new one and have it
installed on your veh icle as soon as possible to
restore the handling advantages of a unidirec­
tional tire.
Notes on wheel changing
Please read the information ¢ page 221 if you
are going to use a spare tire which is different
from the tires on your vehicle.
After yo u change a tire:
-Check the tire pressure on the spare immedi-
ately after installation.
