IN AN

EMERGENCY

❒ Fully expand the jack and lift the vehi-

cle until the wheel is a few centimetres
above ground level. When turning the
jack handle, make sure that it rotates
freely without risking to injure your
hand by rubbing it against the ground.
Even the moving components of the
jack (screws and joints) can cause in-
juries; do not touch them. If you be-
come fouled with lubricating grease,
clean yourself thoroughly.

❒ Unscrew the fastening bolts and remove

the wheel.

❒ Make sure the contact surfaces be-

tween the spare wheel and hub are
clean so that the fastening bolts will not
come loose.

❒ Start expanding the jack so that it par-

tially opens fig. 7. Then, position it un-
der the vehicle near the reference
grooves A-fig. 8 close to the wheel to
be replaced.

❒ Expand the jack until groove A-fig. 9 on

the jack correctly matches the lower
profile B on the side frame.

❒ Warn anybody nearby that the vehicle

is about to be lifted. They must stay
clear and not touch the vehicle until it
is back on the ground.
