If you have a flat tyre or puncture, park the
vehicle as far away from the flow of traffic
as possible. Choose a location that is as
level as possible.
– All vehicle occupants should leave the ve-
hicle. They should wait in a safe area (for
instance behind the roadside crash barri-
er).
– Switch the engine off. Switch the hazard
warning lights on and place the warning tri-
angles in position.
– Apply the handbrake
firmly.
– En g
age the first gear , or put
the selector
lever to position P for those vehicles with
an automatic gearbox.
– If you are towing a trailer, unhitch it from
your vehicle.
– Take the vehicle tools and the spare wheel
out of

the luggage compartment. WARNING
● Switch on the hazard warning lights and
place the warning triangles in position. This
is for your own safety and also warns other
road users. ●
If you change the wheel on a slope, block
the wheel on the opposite side of the car with
a stone or similar to prevent the vehicle from
moving. Changing a wheel
Change the wheel as described below:
– Remove the hub caps or the integral trim .
– Sl ac

ken the wheel bolts .
– Rai

se the vehicle with the jack at the corre-
s pondin

g area.
– Remove the wheel and put on the spare
one.
– Lower the vehicle.
– Tighten the wheel

bolts firmly with the box
sp

anner.
– Replace the hub cap.
Aft

er changing a wheel –

– Place the jack under the jacking point and
turn the crank until the arm of the jack is di-
rectly below the vertical rib under the door
sill.
– Align the jack so that the arm of the jack
fits around the rib under the door sill and
the movable base plate of the jack is flat on
the ground ››› Fig. 161 .
– Rai
se the vehicle until the defective wheel
is just clear of the ground.
Recesses at the front and rear of the door
sills mark the jacking points ››› Fig. 160.
There i

s only one jacking point for each
wheel. Do not fit the jack anywhere else.
An
unstable surface under the jack may
cause the vehicle to slip off the jack. There-
fore, it must be fitted on solid ground offer-
ing good support. Use a large and stable
base, if necessary. On a hard, slippery sur-
face (such as tile) use a rubber mat or similar
to prevent the jack from slipping. WARNING
● Take all precautions so that the base of the
jack does not slip. Failure to follow this in-
struction could result in an accident.
● The vehicle can be damaged if the jack is
not applied at the correct jacking points.
There is also a risk of injury since the jack can
slip off suddenly if it is not properly engaged. Removing and fitting the wheel
Change the wheel as described below after
loosening the wheel bolts and raising the ve-
hicle with the jack.
Removing a wheel
– Unscrew the wheel bolts using the box
spanner and place them on a clean surface.
Fitting a wheel
– Screw on the wheel bolts in position and
tighten them loosely with a box spanner.
The wheel bolts should be clean and easily
screwed. Before fitting the spare wheel, in-
spect the wheel condition and hub mounting
surfaces. These surfaces must be clean be-
fore fitting the wheel.
If tyres with a specific direction of rotation
are fitted, note the direction of rotation. Anti-theft wheel bolts* Fig. 162

Starting
7. Start the engine of the vehicle with the boosting battery and let it run at idling
speed. 8. Start the engine of the vehicle with the flat
battery and wait 2 or 3 minutes until the
engine is “running”.
Removing the jump leads
9. Before you remove the jump leads, switch off the dipped beam headlights (if they
are switched on).
10. Turn on the heater blower and heated rear window in the vehicle with the flat
battery. This helps minimise voltage peaks
which are generated when the leads are
disconnected.
11. When the engine is running, disconnect
the l e
ads in reverse order to the details
given above.
Connect the battery clamps so they have
good metal-to-metal contact with the battery
terminals.
If the engine fails to start, switch off the start-
er after about 10 seconds and try again after
about a minute. WARNING
● Please note the safety warnings referring to
working in the engine compartment
››› page 166, Working in the engine compart-
ment.
● The b att

ery providing assistance must have
the same voltage as the flat battery (12 V)
and approximately the same capacity (see imprint on battery). Failure to comply could
result in an explosion.
●
Never use jump leads when one of the bat-
teries is frozen. Danger of explosion! Even af-
ter the battery has thawed, battery acid could
leak and cause chemical burns. If a battery
freezes, it should be replaced.
● Keep sparks, flames and lighted cigarettes
away from batteries, danger of explosion.
Failure to comply could result in an explo-
sion.
● Observe the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the jump leads.
● Do not connect the negative cable from the
other vehicle directly to the negative terminal
of the flat battery. The gas emitted from the
battery could be ignited by sparks. Danger of
explosion.
● Do not attach the negative cable from the
other vehicle to parts of the fuel system or to
the brake line.
● The non-insulated parts of the battery
clamps must not be allowed to touch. The
jump lead attached to the positive battery
terminal must not touch metal parts of the ve-
hicle, this can cause a short circuit.
● Position the leads in such a way that they
cannot come into contact with any moving
parts in the engine compartment.
● Do not lean on the batteries. This could re-
sult in chemical burns. » 189

Fuses and bulbs
Fuses and bulbs Fuses Introduction Due to the constant updating of vehicles,
fuse assignments based on equipment and
the use of the same fuse for various electrical
components, it is not possible to provide an
up-to-date summary of the fuse positions for
the electrical components at the time this
manual was printed. For detailed information
about the fuse positions, please consult a
technical service.
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various
electrical components. Likewise, an electrical
component can be protected by several
fuses.
Only replace fuses when the cause of the
problem has been solved. If a newly inserted
fuse blows after a short time, you must have
the electrical system checked by a special-
ised workshop as soon as possible.
Additional information and warnings:
● Working in the engine compartment
››› page 166 . WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system can
give serious electrical shocks, causing burns
and even death!
● Never touch the electrical wiring of the igni-
tion system.
● Take care not to cause short circuits in the
electrical system. WARNING
Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses or
bridging a current circuit without fuses can
cause a fire and serious injury.
● Never use a fuse with a higher value. Only
replace fuses with a fuse of the same amper-
age (same colour and markings) and size.
● Never repair a fuse.
● Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, staple
or similar. CAUTION
● To prevent damage to the vehicle's electric
system, before replacing a fuse always turn
off the ignition, the lights and all electrical
elements and remove the key from the igni-
tion.
● If you replace a fuse with higher-rating
fuse, you could cause damage to another part
of the electrical system.
● Protect the fuse boxes when open to pre-
vent the entry of dust or humidity as they can
damage the electrical system. Note
● One component may have more than one
fuse.
● Several components may run on a single
fuse. Vehicle fuses

● Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The
glass can break when you touch the bulb,
causing injury.
● The high voltage element of gas discharge
bulbs* (xenon light) must be handled correct-
ly. Otherwise, there is a risk of death.
● When changing bulbs, please take care not
to injure yourself on sharp parts in the head-
light housing. Fog light/cornering CAUTION
● Remove the ignition key before working on
the electric system. Otherwise, a short circuit
could occur.
● Switch off the lights or parking lights be-
fore you change a bulb. For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to dis-
pose of used bulbs in the proper manner. Note
● Depending on weather conditions (cold or
wet), the front lights, the fog lights, the tail
lights and the turn signals may be temporari-
ly misted. This has no influence on the useful
life of the lighting system. By switching on
the lights, the area through which the beam
of light is projected will quickly be demisted. »1)
With this type of headlight, the user can replace
the turn signal bulb. Replacement of the dip-
ped/main beam bulb must be done by Technical
Services, given that complex elements must be re-
moved from the vehicle and the automatic control
system that incorporates it must be reset.
2) The Xenon bulbs discharge 2.5 times the light flux
and have an average lifespan of 5 times more than
that of halogen bulbs, this means that, except due to
unusual circumstances, there is no need to change
the bulbs for the whole life of the vehicle.
3) In the event that there is a fault in the LEDs, the
complete headlight must be replaced. 197Technical specifications
