event of a fault it must be replaced by
another original one;❒no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
Then proceed as follows:
❒should it be necessary to stop the
vehicle on a road with a gradient,
especially a very high one, or on an
unstable surface, take chock A and fold
it out, as shown in the diagram in fig.
134;
❒alert any bystander that the vehicle is
about to be raised: all persons should
be kept away from the vehicle and
nobody must touch it until it has been
lowered. Nor should any occupant
remain in the vehicle;
❒if the vehicle has alloy wheels, where
the hub cap covers the bolts, use the
key with great care to remove the
hub cap before raising the vehicle;

IN AN EMERGENCY

❒before raising the vehicle, loosen –
without removing – the bolts on the
wheel with the flat tyre using key A fig.
135. With the wheel still resting on
the ground, a single anticlockwise
rotation of the bolts will be enough;
❒position the jack under the vehicle,
near the wheel to be changed;
❒fit key D fig. 136 on hexagon A of
jack B and turn it clockwise until the
jack’s bracket is inserted firmly in the
under-door side member lifting area,
taking care to keep the staff aligned
with the notch indicated by symbol
on the under-door trim;
❒lift the vehicle until the wheel is a few
centimetres off the ground;
❒remove the bolts and the wheel (for
versions with hub cap, remove it after
loosening the 4 bolts that fix it and,
finally, undo the last bolt and remove
the wheel);❒remove the key from the jack and
insert the locating pin in the hub cap (in
the case of alloy wheels)to facilitate
fitting of the spare wheel;
❒make sure the contact surfaces
between spare wheel and hub
are clean so that the fixing bolts will not
become loose subsequently;
❒fit the spare wheel;
❒fit and do up the bolts, without
tightening them;
❒if used, remove the alignment pin;
❒operate the jack and completely
lower the vehicle;
❒take the spare wheel, jack and wheel
bolt removal key (see fig. 133);
❒if the vehicle has aluminium rims,
where the hub cap covers the bolts,
use the key with great care to remove
the hub cap before raising the vehicle;❒tighten the bolts, alternating from one
bolt to the one opposite, according to
the numerical sequence illustrated in
fig. 137. In the case of any doubts
regarding the bolt tightening torque,
contact a Jeep Dealership;
❒reposition the jack, the tools, the
chock and the flat tyre inside the
luggage compartment, ensuring that
they are locked correctly.
IMPORTANT
❒Should it be absolutely necessary to
operate on the road surface or near
it, pay the utmost attention to vehicles
in transit.
❒Pay particular attention when using
the key to remove the bolts: it may have
sharp edges.

❒Raising the vehicle any more than
necessary may lower its stability: the
jack may slip and injure those nearby.
Do not raise the vehicle any more
than required for the removal of the
wheel.
❒Tyres with unidirectional tread can be
recognised by arrows on the side of
the tyre which indicate the direction of
rotation. This must of necessity be
complied with. Only in this way can the
tyres maintain their characteristics in
terms of grip, noise, resistance to wear
and drainage on wet surfaces.
❒If, after a puncture, it is necessary to
fit such a tyre the wrong way round,
it will be necessary to continue driving
with great care, since the tyre’s
performance is limited in these
conditions. This precaution must be
borne in mind above all when the road
surface is wet.
❒In order to benefit completely from
the unidirectional tread, it is advisable to
restore all wheels to the correct
direction of rotation as soon as
possible.
❒Make sure that the spare wheel is
fitted with the valve facing outwards.
The wheel may be damaged if fitted
incorrectly.❒If the vehicle has a hub cap or wheel
cover, do not attempt to fit it on the
spare wheel.
❒To prevent injury to persons, the
complete tightening of the bolts must
only be carried out when all of the
vehicle’s wheels are on the ground, to
prevent the vehicle falling from the jack.
❒After having travelled for about
40 km, stop and check that the bolts
are tightened correctly.
WARNING
141)If left in the passenger compartment,
the punctured wheel and jack constitute
a serious risk to the safety of occupants in
the event of accidents or sharp braking.
Therefore, always place both the jack and
punctured wheel in the dedicated housing
in the luggage compartment.
142)It is extremely dangerous to attempt
to change a wheel on the side of the
vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure
that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
143)Indicate the presence of the stationary
vehicle in accordance with current
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Those on board should get
out of the vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
laden, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the threat posed by
the traffic. On slopes or on unsurfaced
roads, chock the wheels with the chocks
provided.144)The vehicle's driving characteristics
will be modified with the space-saver wheel
fitted. Avoid violent acceleration and
braking, abrupt steering and fast cornering.
The overall duration of the space-saver
wheel is of about 3000 km, after which the
relevant tyre must be replaced with another
one of the same type. Never install a
standard tyre on a rim that is designed for
use with a space-saver wheel. Have the
wheel repaired and refitted as soon as
possible. Using two or more space-saver
wheels at the same time is forbidden.
Do not grease the threads of the bolts
before fitting them: they might slip out
when driving!
145)The space-saver wheel (where
provided) is specific to your vehicle: do not
use it on other models, or use the
space-saver wheel of other models on your
vehicle. The space-saver wheel must only
be used in the event of emergency. It
must only be used for the distance
necessary to reach a service point and the
vehicle speed must not exceed 80 km/h.
The space-saver wheel has an orange label
that summarises the main cautions for
use and limitations. Never remove or cover
the label. Never apply a hub cap on a
space-saver wheel.
