slip off the jack
R injure you or others
R be damaged.
Thus, it is important to make sure that the jack
is positioned correctly in the respective jack-
ing points .Befor epositioning the jack,
remove any dirt that may have collected in the
jacking points.
The jacking point sfor the jack are located
behind the wheel housings of the fron twheels
and in fron tofthe wheel housings of the rear

ately after awheel is changed. The wheels
could work loose if they are not tightened to
at orque of 130 Nm.
X Turn the jack back to its initial position and

The MOExtended run-flat system may only be
used in conjunction with the activated tyre
pressure loss warning system.
! The maximum permissible distanc ewhich
can be driven in run-flat mode depends on
the load in the vehicle. It is 80 km if the
vehicle is partially laden and 30 km if fully
laden. 272
