Vehicles may also have:
– Tool box*
– Wheel bolt spanner
– Wire hook* for wheel trims
– Open jaw spanner 10 x 13
– Screwdriver with box spanner in handle for the wheel bolts. The
screwdriver blade is reversible.
– Jack
Before the jack is placed back into the tool box, the claw must be
fully wound back. The crank is then tensioned against the side of
the jack.
Some light alloy wheels have the caps on the wheel screws. A
special wire hook is provided with the tool box to remove them.
Place the hook in the orifice on the cap and pull to remove

Please note regulations to this effect in your country.
• All-weather tyres can also be used instead of winter tyres.
• If you have a flat tyre the remarks on using the spare wheel on
page 208 should be noted.
• Do not leave winter tyres fitted for an unnecessary long period
because when the roads are free of snow and ice the handling with
summer tyres is better.

For environmental reasons summer tyres should be fitted again as soon as
possible because normally they are quieter in running, tyre wear is reduced
and the fuel consumption is lower.
K
Snow chains
Snow chains may only be fitted on the front wheels. This also
applies to vehicles with four wheel drive*.
The use of snow chains on the tyres 195/65 R 15 is allowed.

When using snow chains wheel rim plates and rim rings must be
taken off. In this case, to protect the wheel, the bolts must then be
fitted with caps which are available from Technical Service Centres.When driving over roadswhich are free of snow you must remove
the chains. On such roadsthey are detrimental to vehicle handling,
damage the tyres and wear out quickly.
In some countries the maximum permissible speed with snow
chains is 50 km/h.

Carry out wheel change on as flat a surface as possible.
• Take the tools out of the vehicle.
• Take spare wheel out of bracket.
• To remove wheel trim:
– Remove wheel bolt caps.
– Remove hub cap or wheel trim with the wheel spanner and the
wire hook.
K
Wheel trims
• Push the wheel spanner as far as possible onto the wheel bolt⇒
fig. 176and turn the spanner anti-clockwise. When doing this, grip
the spanner as far as possible towards the lever end. If the bolts cannot be loosened, one can in an emergency, carefully
push the spanner down with a foot on the end of the lever. One
should ensure that one has a firm stance and a good grip on the
vehicle.
Loosen wheel bolts about one turn.
Refer to page 214 for notes on loosening the anti-theft wheel
bolts*.

• Depressions under vehicle for jack:
– Depressions in the side member at front and rear indicate the
points at which the claw of jack must be fitted to the vertical rib of
the side member
⇒arrows,fig. 177.
– Wind jack arm up by turning the crank in the spindle until the
jack just goes under the vehicle.
– The claw of the jack must fit round the vertical rib on the side
member so that the jack cannot slip when vehicle is lifted
⇒
fig. 178.– If the ground is soft, place a large strong piece of packing under
the jack base plate.
– Align jack and at same time wind claw up further until it contacts
the vehicle.
– Lift vehicle until the wheel is just clear of the ground.
K
Removing and fitting the wheel
– Remove the wheel bolts, place them on a clean surface (hub cap,
cloth) next to the jack and take the wheel off.
– Fit spare wheel and lightly tighten all bolts. The wheel bolts must
be clean and easy to turn – do not under any circumstances use
grease or oil!
– Lower vehicle and fully tighten bolts in diagonal sequence.
– Refit the wheel trim.
– Place and secure the defective wheel in the spare wheel bracket

• The defective wheel should be repaired as soon as possible.
Notes for tyres where the direction of rotation is stipulated
It is imperative that the designated direction of rotation for the tyre
treads (which can be determined from the arrow on the side of the
tyre) be kept to. The best tyre performance i.e. in aquaplaning,
road adhesion, noise and wear are then guaranteed.
If a spare wheel has to be fitted against the stipulated direction of
rotation, this measure should only be a temporary one. The best
possible tyre performance concerning aquaplaning, noise level and
wear are no longer fully guaranteed.
We recommend that you take this into account, especially in wet
weather, and adjust your speed to the driving conditions.
In order to use the principle of the direction of rotation fully again,
the faulty tyre must be replaced as soon as possible.
If necessary, mount the tyre fitted against the direction of rotation
in the stipulated direction.

The Alhambra’s alloy wheels have anti-theft wheel bolts. The
special adapter required for these bolts is contained in the vehicle
tool kit.
The procedure for changing a wheel is as follows:
• First press the adapter
2as far as possible into the star shaped
depression on the anti-theft wheel bolt1⇒ fig. 179.
• Push the wheel spanner (from the vehicle tools) as far as
possible onto the adapter
2and loosen/tighten the wheel bolt as
necessary

The individual current circuits are protected by fuses.
All electric windows are protected together via an automatic fuse
which breaks the circuit when overloaded (e.g. windows frozen)
and completes the circuit again after a few seconds.
It is advisable to always carry a few spare fuses on the vehicle.
