In order to avoid rattling noises later, note the
position of the tools when you remove them and
return them to their original position when you
are through using them.
Compact wheel
The compact wheel is located under the cargo
area on the undercarriage of the vehicle.
Removing compact wheel
1. Unscrew bolt, refer to arrow 1.
2. Fold up lifting handle, refer to arrow 2.
3. Turn the handle to the left as far as possible,
refer to arrow 3.
Turning the handle releases the com-
pact wheel. Its weight of approx.
18 lbs./8 kg is then entirely supported by
the handle.<
4. Slowly lower the handle as far as possible,
refer to arrow 4.
5. Pull the compact wheel to the rear so that it
is still securely resting in its compact wheel
receptacle.
6. If need be, turn the wheel in the compact
wheel receptacle so that the attachment of
the retaining strap to the rim points toward
the rear.
7. Rotate the clamp by 180°, refer to arrows 1,
and unhook the retaining strap from the
clamp, refer to arrow 2.
8. Take out the compact wheel toward the
back.
9. Fasten the retaining strap to the compact
wheel receptacle and resecure the compact
wheel receptacle by reversing the above
steps.
The width of the defective wheel prevents
it from fitting into the compact wheel
receptacle in place of the compact wheel
itself.<
