Raise vehicle
You have to raise the vehicle with the lifting jack* in order to be able
to take off the wheel.Position the lifting jack* by selecting the jacking point which is closest to the wheel
to be removed fig. 138 . The jacking point is located directly below the engraving
in the lower sill. The engraving is only visible after opening the door.
– Position the lifting jack* below the jacking point and move it up until its claw is positioned directly below the vertical web of the lower sill.
– Align the* lifting jack* so that its claw grasps the web of the lower sill and the base plate is resting flat on the floor.
– Turn the lifting jack* up further until the wheel is just clear of the ground.
Ground which is soft and slippery below the base plate of the lifting jack* can cause
the vehicle to slip off the lifting 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-slip 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 base of the lifting jack* from slipping
off - risk of injury!
•
Not positioning the lifting jack* at the specified points can result in damage
to the vehicle. The jack can also slip off if it does not have sufficient grip - risk of
injury!
•
It is important to support the vehicle wi th suitable supporting blocks if you
wish to work under the lifted vehicle - risk of injury!
Securing wheels against being stolen*
You need a special adapter for slackening the safety wheel bolts.– Pull off the full wheel trim/cap from the wheel hub or cap from the safety wheel bolt.
– Insert the adapter with its toothed side fully into the inner toothing of the safety wheel bolt right down in such a way that only the outer hexagon is
jutting out fig. 139 .
– Insert the wheel wrench* fully onto the adapter .
– Slacken the wheel bolt, or tighten it firmly page 151.
– Reinstall the full wheel trim/wheel cap after removing the adapter or place the cap onto the safety wheel bolt.
–Have the tightening torque checked with a torque wrench as soon as possible.
Steel and light alloy wheels must be ti ghtened to a tightening torque of 120 Nm.
The safety wheel bolts on vehicles fitted with them (one safety wheel bolt per
wheel) can only be loosened or tighten up by using the adapter provided.
It is meaningful to note the code numb er hammered into the rear side of the
adapter or the rear side of the safety wheel bolts. You can obtain a replacement
adapter from an authorised Škoda Service Partner, if necessary, by quoting this
number.
We recommend that you always carry the adapter for the wheel bolts with you in
the vehicle. It should be stowed in the vehicle tool kit.
Caution
Damage can occur to the adapter and safety wheel bolt if the safety wheel bolt is
tightened up too much.
