INDEX
Use your hazard lights, warning triangle,
etc to show that your car is stationary.
Passengers should get out of the car, particularly
if it is heavily loaded, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the traffic. If you are on a
steep slope or uneven surface, place wedges or
other suitable objects under the wheels to secure
the vehicle. Repair and refit the standard wheel
as soon as possible. Do not grease the bolt threads
before you fit them, because they could sudden-
ly come loose.
WARNING
Use the jack only to replace wheels on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on oth-
er vehicles of the same model. Never use the jack
for other purposes, such as lifting other models.
Never use the jack to carry out repairs under the
vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the jack may
cause the lifted vehicle to fall. Do not use the jack
for loads higher than the one shown on its label.
WARNING
Incorrect hub cap assembly may cause it
to come off when the car is moving. Nev-
er tamper with the inflation valve. Never intro-
duce tools of any kind between the rim and the
tyre. Check tyre and spare wheel pressures regu-
larly, referring to the values shown in the “Tech-
nical specifications” section.
WARNING
Note for one-way tyres
One-way tyres have a few arrows on the side indicating
the rotation direction. If a wheel is changed (when punc-
tured, for example) the direction of the arrows on the spa-
re wheel tyre may not coincide with the rotation direc-
tion of the wheel to be replaced. In these conditions, too,
the tyre still maintains its safety features.
Anyway, it is recommended to have the wheel repaired
and refitted as soon as possible, as the best performance
is achieved when the rotation direction of all tyres coin-
cides with the one indicated by the arrows.
