Do not leave the tools un-
secured inside the vehicle
as they may come loose
under braking. After use,
check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then position
it correctly in its housing: there is a
risk of injury.
The jack is designed for wheel
changing purposes only. Under no
circumstances should it be used for
carrying out repairs underneath the
vehicle or to gain access to the un-
derside of the vehicle.
Nothing should be placed
on the floor area in front of
the driver as such objects
may slide under the pedal
during braking manoeuvres, thus
obstructing its use.

With the wheels on the ground, tighten
the nuts fully and check if they are tight

Anti-theft bolt
If you use anti-theft bolts, fit these

not be possible to fit the wheel trim).

Remove the wheel trim (refer to the in-
formation on “Wheel trims” in Section 5).
