13).
– Grasp the end of the wrench and turn the bolt to the right until it is tight.
WARNING
Slacken the wheel bolts only a little (abo
ut one turn) as long as the vehicle has
not yet been jacked up - risk of an accident!
Note

Apply pressure carefully with your
foot
to the e nd of the wrench if it prove s d iff icult
to slacken the bolts. Hold tight on the vehicl
e when doing this and ensure that you have
a steady position.
Raise vehicle You have to raise the vehicle with a lifting jack in order to be able to take off the wheel.– Position the lifting jack by selecting the ja
cking point - engraving in the lower sill -
which is closest to the wheel to be removed
fig. 155
.
– Position the lifting jack below the jacking
point and move it up until its claw is posi-
tioned directly below the vertical web of the lower sill.
– Align the lifting jack so that its claw grasps the vertical web on the engraving of the
lower sill and the bottom ba
se plate of the lifting jack is resting flat with its
complete surface against firm ground.
– Turn the lifting jack up further until
the wheel is just clear of the ground.
Ground below the lifting jack which is soft and slippery
can cause the vehicle to slip
off the jack. It is therefore always necessary
to place the lifting jack on a solid surface
or use a wide and stable base. Use a non-sl
ip base (e.g. a rubber foot mat) if the
surface is smooth
, such as cobbled stones, a tiled floor, etc.
WARNING

Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed - risk of injury.

Take suitable measures to prevent the ba
se of the lifting jack from slipping
off - risk of injury!
Place the lifting ja
ck only on a soli
d and even surface.
13)Use the appropriate adapter for slackening and tightening the safety wheel bolts
