modifications. If you are unsure if the jack
capacity is adequate, contact the
authorized dealer. WARNING:
Switch off the running
boards before jacking or placing any
object under your vehicle. Never place
your hand between the extended running

WARNING: Chock the diagonally
opposite wheel to the punctured tire with
an appropriate block or wheel chock. A
wheel chock may be in the B-pillar or in
a storage compartment in the front
right-hand side stepwell. WARNING:
Make sure that the
arrows on directional tires point in the
direction of rotation when your vehicle
is moving forward. If you have to fit a
spare tire with the arrows pointing in the
opposite direction have the tire refitted
as soon as possible.
1. Use the locking lug nut key to loosen the locking lug nut.
2. Loosen the remaining lug nuts, but do not remove them.
3. Raise your vehicle until the tire is clear of the ground.
4. Remove the lug nuts and the road wheel.
Note: Do not lay alloy road wheels face
down on the ground.
Installing a Road Wheel WARNING:
Use only approved
wheel and tire sizes. Using other sizes
could damage your vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid. WARNING:
Make sure there is no
grease or oil on the threads or the
surface between the wheel lugs and
nuts. This can cause the lug nuts to
loosen while driving. WARNING:
When you install a
wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt
or foreign materials present on the
mounting surfaces of the wheel or the
surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make
sure to secure any fasteners that attach
the rotor to the hub so they do not
interfere with the mounting surfaces of
the wheel. Installing wheels without
correct metal-to-metal contact at the
wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to
come off while your vehicle is in motion,
resulting in loss of vehicle control,
personal injury or death. WARNING:
Only use the specific
lug nuts and wheels supplied with your
vehicle. If in doubt, contact an authorized
dealer. WARNING:
Do not install alloy
wheels using lug nuts designed for use
with steel wheels. WARNING:
The lug nuts of alloy
wheels and spoked steel wheels can also
be used for the steel spare wheel for a
short time (maximum two weeks).
1. Install the wheel.

type and size as your vehicle road wheel
replace it as soon as possible. Note:
Check the lug nuts for correct
tightness and check the tire pressure as
soon as possible. See
Technical
Specifications (page 305). Note:
When installing 17-inch dual rear
wheels, align the valve stems facing each
other.

Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor™
Your vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent
Oil-Life Monitor that determines when you
should change the engine oil based on how
your vehicle is used. By using several
important factors in its calculations, the
monitor helps reduce the cost of owning
your vehicle and reduces environmental
waste at the same time.
The following table provides examples of
vehicle use and its impact on oil change
intervals. It is a guideline only. Actual oil
change intervals depend on several factors
and generally decrease with severity of
use.When to expect the oil change message
