JACK
Please note that:
the jack weight is 1,76 kg;
the jack requires no adjustment;
the jack cannot be repaired and in
the event of a fault it must be replaced
by another genuine one;
no tool other than its cranking
device may be fitted on the jack.
CHANGING PROCEDURE
To change a wheel, proceed as follows:
stop the car in a position that is
not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel safely.
The ground must be flat and sufficiently
compact;
switch off the engine, pull up the
handbrake and engage the 1stgear or
reverse. Wear the reflective safety
jacket (compulsory by law) before
getting out of the car;
open the luggage compartment, pull
tab A fig. 103 and lift up the mat;
using the wrench A fig. 104 located
in the tool box, loosen the locking
device, take the tool box B and place it
close to the wheel to be replaced.
Then take the space-saver wheel C;
remove the snap-fitted hub cap. On
vehicles with 15” rims and cosmetic
hub caps, use extractor B fig. 105
contained in the Owner Handbook
casing to assist removal. Hold the
extractor B with two fingers, insert the
tab between tyre and hub cap (A)
and pull towards yourself,
perpendicularly to the wheel;
for versions with alloy rims, remove
the press-fitted hub cap;
take tool A and undo the fastening
bolts by approximately one turn, as
shown in fig. 106 (e.g. in case of alloy
rims);
for versions with alloy rims, shake
the car to facilitate detachment of
the rim from the wheel hub;
position the jack under the car, near
the wheel to be changed;

operate the device A fig. 107 to
extend the jack until the top part B fig.
108 fits correctly into the side member
C (next to the mark
on the side
member);
alert any bystander that the car is
about to be raised; all persons should
be kept away from the car and nobody
must touch it until it has been lowered;
fit handle D fig. 107 into the housing
in device A, operate the jack and raise
the vehicle until the wheel is a few
centimetres from the ground;
loosen the bolts completely and
remove the wheel to be replaced;
make sure the contact surfaces
between space-saver wheel and hub
are clean so that the fastening bolts will
not come loose;
fit the space-saver wheel by
inserting the first bolt for two threads
into the hole closest to the valve;
take the wrench A fig. 106 and fully
tighten the fixing bolts;
operate the jack handle D to lower
the car. Then extract the jack;
use the wrench A provided to fully
tighten the bolts in a criss-cross fashion
as per the numerical sequence
illustrated in fig. 109;
when replacing a wheel with alloy
rim it is advisable to place it upside
down in the boot with the cosmetic part
facing upwards.
Restore the standard wheel as soon as
possible, because, once placed in the
associated compartment, the luggage
compartment load platform is rendered
uneven as the standard wheel is larger
than the space-saver wheel.
REFITTING THE
STANDARD WHEEL
Following the procedure described
previously, raise the vehicle and remove
the space-saver wheel.
Versions with steel wheels
Proceed as follows:
make sure the contact surfaces
between standard wheel and hub are
clean so that the fastening bolts will not
come loose;

IN AN EMERGENCY

fit the standard wheel inserting the 4
bolts into the holes;
using the wrench provided, tighten
the fastening bolts;
lower the vehicle and remove the
jack;
using the wrench provided, fully
tighten the bolts in the sequence
shown previously.
press-fit the wheel cap, aligning the
special splining (on the cap) with the
inflation valve;
place the inner part of the hub cap
on the wheel rim;
engage the hub cap by applying an
axial force in several points as shown
in fig. 110 to allow the correct coupling
between hub cap and wheel.Versions with alloy rims
Proceed as follows:
insert the wheel on the hub and use
the spanner provided to tighten the
bolts;
lower the vehicle and remove the
jack;
using the wrench provided, fully
tighten the bolts in the sequence
shown;
reinstall the pressure-fitted hub cap,
making sure that the reference hole
on the wheel is aligned with the
reference hole on the cap.
IMPORTANT If it is not fitted correctly,
the hub cap may detach when the
vehicle is running.
At the end of the operation
Stow the space-saver wheel in the
compartment provided in the boot;
insert the jack and the other tools in
the container;
arrange the container and tools on
the space-saver wheel;
correctly reposition the luggage
compartment mat.
WARNING
129)The space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets where provided) is
specific to your car, do not use it on other
models, or use the space-saver wheel
of other models on your car. The
space-saver wheel must only be used in
the event of an emergency. Never use it for
more than strictly necessary and never
exceed 80 km/h. On the space-saver
wheel there is an orange label,
summarising the main warnings regarding
space-saver wheel usage restrictions.
Never remove or cover the label. The label
contains the following indications in four
languages: "Warning! For temporary use
only! 80 km/h max.! Replace with standard
wheel as soon as possible. Never cover
this indication." Never apply a wheel cap
on a space-saver wheel.
130)If you change the type of wheel (alloy
rims instead of steel rims and vice versa)
you will have to change the entire set
of wheel studs with another set of suitably
sized ones.
131)Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the car, especially if it is
heavily laden. Passengers should stay
away from on-coming traffic while the
wheel is being changed. On hills or uneven
roads, use chocks or appropriate objects
to block the wheels of the vehicle.

132)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 apply grease to the bolt threads
before fitting: they could come unscrewed.
133)The jack shall only be used for raising
the car model it has been supplied with.
Never use the jack for other purposes,
such as raising other car models. Never
use the jack for repair operations under the
vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the jack
may cause the vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. The space-saver wheel
cannot be fitted with snow chains. If a
front (drive) tyre is punctured and chains
are needed, use a standard wheel from the
rear axle and install the space-saver wheel
on the rear axle. In this way, with two
normal drive wheels at the front axle, it is
possible to use snow chains.
134)If the hub cap is not fitted correctly, it
may come off when the car is travelling.
Never tamper with the inflation valve. Never
introduce tools of any kind between rim
and tyre. Check tyre and space-saver
wheel pressures regularly, complying with
the values given in the "Technical
specifications" chapter.135)Be very careful when removing/
refitting the hub cap due to the proximity of
the brake disc. We recommend using
heat protection gloves.
WARNING
54)When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw"
and joints) can also cause injuries: avoid
touching them. If you come into contact
with lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.
55)Contact a Lancia Dealership as soon
as possible to have the correct tightening
of the wheel bolts checked.
