Get all the passengers to move to a safe place outside the car.
Close all doors.
Block the wheels remaining on the ground with wooden blocks, stones or something similar.
With the car still on the ground, use the lug wrench to loosen the wheel lugs 1/2 - 1 turn. Position the lug wrench so
that you apply force in a downward direction. Never lift up on the lug wrench to loosen or tighten lugs.
Turn the bolts counterclockwise to loosen. If necessary, press down on the lug wrench with your foot to loosen the
lugs.
CAUTION:
The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came
with the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.

Attaching the jack
There are two jack attachment points located on each side of the car. These attachment points are marked by arrows on
the outside of the cover over the bottom sill (see illustration).
Check that the doors are closed and stay closed all the time the car is jacked up.
Position the jack under the two notches closest to the wheel to be changed.
Attach the crank to the jack (A).
Attach the lug wrench (B) to the crank.
Raise the jack by cranking it clockwise. Be sure the jack engages the attachment point correctly.
The base of the jack must be flat on a level, firm, non-slippery surface. Before raising the car, check that the
jack is still correctly positioned in the attachment point.
Raise the car until the wheel to be changed is lifted off the ground.
Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the thread on the studs.
WARNING!
The jack must be correctly placed in the jack attachment.
Installing the wheel
Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub.

Lift the wheel and place it on the hub.
Install the wheel lugs and tighten handtight.
Using the lug wrench. Tighten crosswise until all lugs are snug.
Lower the vehicle to the ground and alternately tighten the lugs crosswise to 81 ft. lbs. (110 Nm).
Install the wheel cover (where applicable).
CAUTION:
Correct tightening torque on wheel lugs must be observed. The wheel lugs should never be greased or lubricated.
Extended, chromed wheel lugs must not be used with steel rims, as they make it impossible to fit the hub caps.
pg. 89 Replacing bulbs
Removing high/low beam headlight bulbs
Your car is fitted with separate high and low beam bulbs.
Switch off the lights and remove the ignition key.
Open the hood.
Pull off the rubber cover from the rear of the bulb unit to be replaced.
Release the retaining spring and withdraw the connector/bulb from the headlight unit. Pull the bulb out of the
connector.
NOTE: Never touch the glass of a bulb with your fingers: this could leave traces of grease or oil on the glass which
then evaporate and may damage the reflector.

Scratches on the surface If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and an undamaged layer of paint
remains, the touchup paint can be applied as soon as the spot has been cleaned.
Deep scratches
1. Place a strip of masking tape over the damaged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to
it.
2. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush.
When the primer surface is dry, the paint can be applied using a brush. Mix the paint thoroughly; apply several thin
paint coats and let dry after each application.
3. If there is a longer scratch, you may want to protect surrounding paint by masking it off.
pg. 103 Washing
Washing the car
The car should be washed at regular intervals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots adhere to the paint and may cause
damage.
NOTE: It is particularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime to prevent corrosion, when salt has
been used on the roads.
When washing the car, do not expose it to direct sunlight. Use lukewarm water to soften the dirt before you wash
with a sponge, and plenty of water, to avoid scratching.
Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be permanently damaged.
A detergent can be used to facilitate the softening of dirt and oil.
A water-soluble grease solvent may be used in cases of sticky dirt. However, use a wash place equipped with a
drainage separator.
Dry the car with a clean chamois and remember to clean the drain holes in the doors and rocker panels.
The power radio antenna (sedans) must be dried after washing.
Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has been washed.
A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy water can be used to clean the wiper blades. Frequent cleaning improves
visibility considerably.
Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel housings fenders, etc.).
In areas of high industrial fallout, more frequent washing is recommended.
CAUTION: During high pressure washing, the spray nozzle must never be closer to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do
not spray into the locks.
