Warnings for changing the tire
Only use the specically designated
jack for the corresponding frame
parts.
Damage or even an accident result-
ing from the vehicle's toppling over
can occur if the jack is applied to
other parts of the vehicle.
The jack is only to be used for
changing tires. It may not be used
for working under the vehicle!
The rotating stanchions may not be
used as a jack!
The jack is not part of the standard
equipment in this series, and is there-
fore not included.
After changing the tire, the wheel
screws must be examined (after a
50 km drive) to ensure that they are
tight enough (tighten if necessary).
Changing the wheel
• Mount a suitable car jack on the appropriate
parts of the frame.
• If the vehicle is parked on soft ground, lay a
stable reinforcement under jack (i.e., a board).
• Lift the vehicle until the wheel is 2 or 3 cm off
the ground.
• Reposition the ratchet jack handle if it should
slant when you jack up the vehicle.
• Remove the wheel fastening screws and the
wheel.
• Attach the spare tire to the hub and adjust it.
• Reattach the wheel screws and tighten them
lightly over the transversal.
• Lower the jack and remove it.
• Tighten the wheel fastening screws evenly
with the wheel wrench. The nominal value of
the attachment torque is 105 nm for steel rims
and 120 nm for aluminium rims.
• Release the handbrake and reactivate the
stabilization system
