Attaching the jack

1. Position the jack correctly on the bar in the

attachment (see illustration) and crank

while simultaneously guiding the base of

the jack to the ground. The base of the jack

must be flat on a level, firm, non-slippery

surface. Before raising the vehicle, check

that the jack is still correctly positioned in

the attachment.

2. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be

changed is lifted off the ground.

3. Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and

carefully remove the wheel so as not to

damage the threads on the studs.

Jack on certain models

NOTE

To avoid excessive wear and the necessity

of rebalancing, mark and reinstall wheels in

the same location and position as before

removal. To lessen the chance of imbal-

ance, each wheel hub is equipped with a

guide stud to ensure that a removed wheel

can be reinstalled in its original position (as

when changing over to winter tires/wheels).

Installing the wheel

1. Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel

and hub.

2. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub.

3. Install the wheel bolts and tighten hand-

tight. Using the lug wrench, tighten cross-

wise until all bolts are snug.

4. Lower the vehicle to the ground and alter-

nately tighten the bolts crosswise to 102 ft.

lbs. (140 Nm).

5. Install the wheel cap (where applicable).
