WARNING: The parking brake acts on
transmission, not rear wheels, and may
not hold vehicle when jacking unless
following procedure is used. If one front wheel
and one rear wheel is raised no vehicle holding or
braking effect is possible. Wheels MUST be
chocked in all circumstances.
Apply parking brake, select 'P' or a gear in main
gearbox and engage low gear in transfer box.
1.Loosen five wheel nuts.
2.Using a suitable trolley jack raise vehicle and
place on axle stands.
See INTRODUCTION,
Information, Jacking
3.Remove wheel nuts and carefully withdraw
wheel over studs.Refit
4.Ensure that retaining studs and nuts are clean.
5.Alloy wheels: Lightly coat wheel mounting spigot
face with a suitable anti-seize compound to
minimise possibility of adhesion between wheel
and spigot face.
6.Refit wheel taking care not to damage stud
threads. (Do not apply oil)
7.Fit wheel nuts and turn by hand for at least three
full threads before using any form of wheel
wrench.
8.Tighten nuts as much as possible using a
suitable wrench.
9.Lower vehicle and finally tighten nuts to correct
torque sequence shown. Alloy wheels and steel
wheels:
130Nm.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS CRASH SENSOR INSPECTION - DISTRIBUTED
SRS
1.After any degree of front body damage, inspect
both front crash sensors. Replace a sensor if
there are any signs of dents, cracks or
deformation.
2.Ensure the sensors are installed correctly. There
must be no gap between the sensor and body of
the vehicle. Use the fixing screws supplied with
the sensor and tighten to the correct torque.
Tighten front sensor fixing before rear sensor
fixing.
CAUTION: Take extra care when painting
or doing body work in the vicinity of the
sensors. Avoid direct exposure of the
sensors or harness to heat guns, welding or
spraying equipment.AIRBAG HARNESS
1.Never attempt to modify, splice or repair the
airbag harness. Never install electronic
equipment such as; a mobile telephone, two-way
radio or in-car entertainment system in such a
way that it interferes electrically with the airbag
harness.
NOTE: The airbag harness can be
identified by a special yellow outer
protective covering.
2.Make sure the airbag harness is installed
correctly and not pinched or trapped.
3.Ensure all airbag harness connectors are mated
correctly and securely fastened. Do not leave the
connectors hanging loose.
