Fitting
●
Press the wheel trim onto the wheel at the
c
ut
out
designed for the valve.
●
Press the wheel trim on both sides in the
direction of the valve so that it fits correctly
in place around all the perimeter.
CAUTION
●
Pres
s down by hand, do not hit the wheel
trim! Knocking it sharply, particularly at
points where the wheel trim has not yet been
inserted, could result in damage to the wheel
trim guiding and centring elements.
●
Before fitting the trim on a steel wheel at-
tached with an anti-theft wheel bolt, make
sure the bolt is in the hole in the valve area
››› page 48, Anti-theft wheel bolts*.
●
Where trim is fitted at a later date, ensure
enough air inflow is guaranteed in order to
cool the brake system.
