❒ fit the handle H into the device I of the
jack and lift the car until the wheel to
be changed is several centimetres off
the ground. When turning the handle,
make sure that it rotates freely, with-
out risking to injure your hand by rub-
bing it against the ground. Even the
moving components of the jack (screws
and joints) can cause injuries; avoid to
touch them. If you become soiled with
the lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly;
❒ make sure the rest surfaces between
small spare wheel and hub are clean so
that the fastening bolts will not come
loose;
❒ put the jack near the wheel to be re-
placed, aligning it with the mark O on
the side member;
❒ make sure that the groove F-fig. 5 of
the jack is well in contact with the tab
G of the side member;
❒ warn anybody nearby that the car is
about to be lifted. They must stay clear
and not touch the car until it is back on
the ground;
