Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not block  traffic:  the  ground  must  be  level, Â
s
table  and  not  slippery.
Apply
 the  parking  brake,  switch  off  the Â

Check
 that  the  parking  brake  warning Â
l
amps  in  the  instrument  panel  come  on.
The
 occupants  must  get  out  of  the Â
v
ehicle  and  wait  where  they  are  safe.
Ensure
 that  the  jack  is  correctly Â
p
ositioned  at  one  of  the  vehicle's Â
j
acking  points.
Incorrect
 use  of  the  jack  could  cause Â
t
he  vehicle  to  drop.
Never
 go  underneath  a  vehicle  raised Â
u
sing  a  jack;  use  an  axle  stand.
List of operations
F Remove the  wheel  bolt  cover(s)  using  the  t
ool 3  (depending  on  version).

Do
 not  use:
-
Â
t
he  jack  for  any  other  purpose  than Â
l
ifting  the  vehicle,
-
Â
a
 jack  other  than  the  one  supplied Â
b
y  the  manufacturer. The
 jack  must  only  be  used  to  change  a Â
w
heel  with  a  damaged  tyre.
The  jack  does  not  require  any  m

F Position the  foot  of  the  jack  2  on  the  ground  a
nd ensure that it is directly below the
front
A or rear B  jacking  point  provided  on Â
t
he underbody, whichever is closest to the
wheel
 to  be  changed. F
 E xtend  the  jack  2  until  its  head  comes  into  contact  with  the  jacking  point  A or B  used;  the  v
ehicle's  contact  area  A or B  must  engage  with  the  central  part  of  the  head  of  the  jack.
F
Â
R
aise  the  vehicle  until  there  is  sufficient  space  between  the  wheel  and  the  ground  to  admit  the Â
s
pare  (not  punctured)  wheel  easily.
Ensure
 that  the  jack  is  stable.  If  the  ground  is  slippery  or  loose,  the  jack  may  slip  or  drop  - Â
R
isk  of  injury!
Ensure
 that  the  jack  is  positioned  only  at  one  of  the  jacking  points  A or B under the vehicle,
making
 sure  that  the  vehicle's  contact  sur face  is  centred  on  the  head  of  the  jack.  Other wise Â
t
here  is  a  risk  of  damage  to  the  vehicle  and/or  of  the  jack  dropping  -  Risk  of  injury!
