Installing
Push the cap onto the wheel bolt up to the stop.
Changing a wheel
When changing a wheel, the following instructions must be followed.
Remove the full wheel trim or the caps of the wheel bolts.
First of all slacken the anti-theft wheel bolt and then the other wheel bolts.
Jack up the vehicle until the wheel that needs changing is clear of the
ground.
Unscrew the wheel bolts and place them on a clean surface (cloth, paper,
etc.).
Remove the wheel carefully.
Attach the spare wheel and slightly screw on the wheel bolts.
Lower the vehicle.
Alternately tighten wheel bolts opposite (diagonally) with the wheel wrench.
Tighten the anti-theft wheel bolt last.
Replace the wheel trim or the caps.
When fitting unidirectional tyres, ensure that the direction of rotation is cor-
rect » page 151.
WARNING
Undo the wheel bolts only a little (about one turn) provided that the vehi-
cle has not yet been jacked up. Otherwise the wheel could become loose
and fall off.
All bolts must be clean and must turn easily.
If it is established when changing a wheel that the wheel bolts are corro-
ded and difficult to move, then these must be replaced.
Under no circumstances grease or oil the wheel bolts!
Follow-up work
After changing the wheel, the following work must be carried out.
Stow and attach the replaced wheel in the spare wheel well using a special
screw » page 155.
Stow the tool kit in the space provided and secure using the band.
Check the tyre pressure on the installed spare wheel as soon as possible.
Have the tightening torque of the wheel bolts checked with a torque
wrench as soon as possible.
After changing the wheel, the tyre pressure should be adjusted. In vehicles
with tyre pressure monitoring, tyre pressure values are to be stored » page 115.
Replace the damaged wheel or consult a specialist garage about repair op-
tions.
WARNING
Information on the wheel bolts
The prescribed tightening torque of the wheel bolts for steel and light al-
loy wheels is 120 Nm.
If the wheel bolts are tightened to a too low tightening torque, the rim
can come loose when the car is moving. A tightening torque which is too
high can damage the bolts and threads and this can result in permanent
deformation of the contact surfaces on the rim.
In case of incorrect treatment of the wheel bolts, the wheel can loosen
when the car is moving.
Drive cautiously and only at a moderate speed until the tightening torque
has been checked.
