1998 C70
The spare wheel is located under the carpet on the trunk floor. The jack and crank are secured in the
wheel recess.
Engage the parking brake.
Put the gear selector in (P)ark (automatic) or in Reverse (manual).
With the car still on the ground, use the lug wrench to loosen the wheel bolts 1/2 - 1 turn. Turn the
bolts counterclockwise to loosen.
Fold out the crank handle on the jack by pressing the nob on the handle downward. To attach the jack,
refer to the illustration on the following page.
NOTE: To avoid excessive wear and the necessity of rebalancing, mark and reinstall wheels in same
location and position as before removal. To lessen the chance of imbalance, 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).
CAUTION:
The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the
one that came with the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's
transmission.
pg. 83 Wheel changing (cont.)
Jack attachment
There is a jack attachment located in the center on each side of the car. Position the jack on the bar in the
attachment as shown in illustration A above 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 car check that the jack is still correctly positioned in the attachment. Raise the vehicle
until both wheels on the side of the car where the jack is attached are lifted off the ground. Unscrew the
wheel bolts completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the thread on the studs.
