Emergencies
●
Bl
ock the wheel diagonally opposit
e the
wheel being changed with folding wheel
chocks* or other suitable objects.
●
Find the support point on the strut (sunken
area) closest to the wheel to be changed
›››
Fig. 47.
●
Turn the jack* crank handle, located below
the strut support point, to raise it until the
tab
›››
Fig. 48 is below the housing that is
provided.
●
Align the jack* so that the tab “grips” onto
the housing provided on the cross member
and the mobile base is resting on the ground.
The base plate 2 should fall vertically with re-
spect to the support point.
●
Continue turning the jack* until the wheel is
slightly lifted off the ground.
WARNING
The factory-supplied jack* is only de-
signed for changing wheel
s on this model.
On no account attempt to use it for lifting
heavier vehicles or other loads. Risk of in-
jury.
●
Make sure that the jack* remains stable.
If the surface is slippery or soft, the jack*
could slip or sink, respectively, with the re-
sultant risk of injury.
●
Only raise the vehicle with the jack* sup-
plied by the manufacturer. Other jacks,
even those approved for other SEAT mod-
els could slip, with the consequent risk of
injury.
●
Only mount the jack* on the support
points designed f
or this purpose on the
strut, and always align the jack correctly. If
you do not, the jack* could slip as it does
not have an adequate grip on the vehicle:
risk of injury!
●
You should never place a body limb such
as an arm or leg under a raised vehicle that
is solely supported by the jack.
●
If you have to work underneath the vehi-
cle, you must use suitable stands addition-
ally to support the vehicle, there is a risk of
accident!.
●
Never raise the vehicle if it is tilting to one
side or the engine is running.
●
Never start the engine when the vehicle is
raised. The vehicle may come loose from
the jack due to the engine vibrations.
CAUTION
The vehicle must not be raised on the
crossbar
. Only place the jack* on the
points designed for this purpose on the
strut. Otherwise, the vehicle may be dam-
aged.
