Locking and unlocking the steering wheel
● Engaging the steering wheel lock: Remove
the key fr
om the ignition and turn the wheel
until it locks. In vehicles with an automatic
gearbox, the gear lever must be in the P posi-
tion in order to remove the key. If necessary,
press the locking key on the selector lever
and release it again.
● Unlocking the steering wheel: Put the key
into the ignition and turn it
at the same time
as the steering wheel in the direction indica-
ted by the arrow. If it is not possible to turn
the steering wheel, it may be because it is
locked. Turning on/switching off the ignition, glow

the right. Rel
easing the selector lever re-
quires a certain degree of practical skill.
● Unlocking: use the flat part of a screwdriver
bla
de.
Removing the cover from the selector lever
● Apply the handbrake ›››
to ensure that
the c ar doe
s
not move.
● Carefully pull the corners of the selector
lever boot
and twist it upwards above the lev-
er handle.
Releasing the selector lever
● Using a screwdriver, press and hold the yel-
low un
locking tab sideways ››› Fig. 58.
● Press the interlock button on the selector
lever and mo
ve the selector lever to posi-
tion N.
● After carrying out the manual release, at-
tach the sel
ector lever boot on the gearbox
console again.
If the power supply should ever fail (e.g. dis-
charged battery) and the vehicle has to be pushed or towed, the selector lever must first
be moved t
o position N, after operating the
manual release mechanism. WARNING
The selector lever may be moved out of posi-
tion P only when the h
andbrake is firmly ap-
plied. If this does not work, secure the vehi-
cle with the brake pedal. On a slope the vehi-
cle could otherwise start to move inadver-
tently after shifting the selector lever out of
position P - accident risk! Air conditioning

etc.). ●
All
occupants should leave the vehicle and
wait in a safe place (for instance behind the
roadside crash barrier). WARNING
● Alw a

Wheel bolts Fig. 80
Changing a wheel: loosen the wheel
bo lts. Fig. 81
Changing a wheel: tyre valve 1 and
the c orrect
position for the anti-theft wheel
locking bolt 2 or
3 .
Use only the wheel wrench belonging to the
c
ar t
o loo
sen the wheel bolts.
Loosen the wheel bolts only about one turn
before raising the vehicle with the jack. If the wheel bolt is very tight, carefully push
on the end of the wheel wr
ench with your
foot. Hold on to the vehicle for support and
take care not to slip during this operation.
Loosening wheel bolts
● Fit the wheel wrench on as far as it will go

● Hold the wrench at the end and rotate the
bolt ap

wise ››› in Removing and fitting the wheel

The caps protect the wheel bolts and should
be pushed fully on again after changing the
tyre.
Loosening the anti-theft wheel bolt
● Take the adapter for the anti-theft wheel
bolts out
of the vehicle tool kit.
● Insert the adapter fully onto the anti-theft
wheel bolt
››› Fig. 81.
● Fit the wheel wrench as far as it will go over
the adapt
er.

The anti-theft wheel bolt has a different cap.
This cap only fits on anti-theft locking bolts
and is not for use with standard wheel bolts. Important information about wheel bolts
Factor
y-fitted rims and wheel bolts are spe-
cially matched during construction. There-
fore, if different rims are fitted, the correct
wheel bolts with the right length and heads
must be used. This ensures that wheels are
fitted securely and that the brake system
functions correctly.
In certain circumstances, you should not
even use wheel bolts from vehicles of the
same model.
In wheels with full hubcaps, the anti-theft
locking bolt must be threaded onto positions 2 or
3 , taking the tyre valve’s position as
r ef
er
ence 1 . Otherwise it will not be possi-
b l
e t
o mount the hubcap. 63

The essentials
the wheel condition and hub mounting surfa-
c e
s.
These surfaces must be clean before fit-
ting the wheel.
Wheel bolt tightening torque
The prescribed tightening torque for wheel
bolts for steel and alloy wheels is 140 Nm.
After changing a wheel, have the tightening
torque checked immediately with a torque
wrench that is working perfectly.
Before checking tightening torque, have any
rusty wheel bolts that are difficult to screw re-
placed and clean the wheel hub threads.
Never apply grease or oil to wheel bolts or to
the wheel hub threads. Even if the bolts have
been tightened to the prescribed torque, they
could come loose while driving. WARNING
If the wheel bolts are not properly tightened,
they c ou
ld come loose while driving and
cause an accident, serious injury and loss of
vehicle control.
● Use only wheel bolts which correspond to
the rim in question.
● Nev
er use different wheel bolts.
● Wheel bolts and threads should be clean,
free of oi
l and grease, and it should be possi-
ble to screw them easily.
● To loosen and tighten wheel bolts, only use
the wheel wrenc
h that came with the car from
the factory. ●
Loo sen the wheel
bolts only about one turn
before raising the vehicle with the jack.
● Never apply grease or oil to wheel bolts or
to the wheel hub thr
eads. Even if the bolts
have been tightened to the prescribed tor-
que, they could come loose while driving.
● Never loosen the screwed joints of wheel
rims with bo
lted ring trims.
● If wheel bolts are tightened below the pre-
scribed t
orque, the bolts and rims could come
loose while driving. If tightening torque is too
high, the wheel bolts or threads can be dam-
aged. CAUTION
When removing/fitting the wheel, the rim
ma y
hit and damage the brake disc. For this
reason, please take care and get a second
person to assist you. Tyres with compulsory rotation direc-
tion
A directional tread pattern can be identified
b
y
the arr
ows on the sidewall that point in
the direction of rotation. Always observe the
direction of rotation indicated when fitting
the wheel to guarantee optimum properties
of this type of tyres with regard to grip,
noises, wear and aquaplaning.
If it is absolutely necessary to fit the spare
tyre* against the direction of rotation, drive with care as this means the tyre does not of-
fer optimum drivin
g properties. This is of par-
ticular importance when the road surface is
wet.
To return to directional tread tires, replace
the punctured tyre as soon as possible and
restore the obligatory direction of rotation of
all tyres.
Subsequent work ●
Alloy wheels: rep
l
ace the wheel bolt caps.
● Plate wheels: repl
ace the wheel hubcap.
● Return all tools to their proper storing loca-
tion.
● If the replaced wheel does not fit in the
spar
e wheel housing, store it safely in the
luggage compartment ›››
page 152.
● Check the tyre pressure of the newly moun-
ted tyr
e as soon as possible.
● In vehicles fitted with a tyre pressure indi-
cator
, adjust the pressure and store it in
memory ›››
page 282.
● Have the tightening torque of the wheel
bolts c
hecked as soon as possible with a tor-
que wrench (it should be 120 Nm). Mean-
while, drive carefully.
● Have the flat tyre replaced as quickly as
pos s
ible. 65
