Locking wheel nuts

Vehicles may be equipped with a locking
wheel nut on each wheel. These are
similar to standard wheel nuts, and can
only be removed using the special
adaptor provided with the jacking
equipment.

1. Insert the adaptor firmly onto the

locking wheel nut.

2. Using the wheel brace, unscrew the

wheel nut and adaptor.

3. Return the locking wheel nut adaptor

to the correct storage position.

Note: A code number is stamped on the
side of the locking nut. Ensure the number
is recorded on the Security Card supplied
with the literature pack. Quote this
number if a replacement is required. Do
not keep the Security Card in the vehicle.

Spare wheel location

The spare wheel and jacking equipment
are stored under the luggage
compartment floor panel.

To remove the spare wheel, remove the
luggage compartment floor panel and the
tray containing the jacking equipment.
Unscrew the spare wheel retaining Tee
bolt and remove the spare wheel.

Remove the jack and wheel nut wrench
from the stowage tray.

Note: Examine the jack occasionally and
clean and grease the threads to ensure it
is always ready for an emergency.
