Tools
Amongst other things, the car contains towing
eye, jack* and wheel wrench*.
The car's towing eye, emergency puncture repair
kit and the tool for the plastic wheel bolt caps are
located behind the hatch on the left-hand side of
the cargo area. There is also space for the sleeve
for the lockable wheel bolts. Jack* and wheel
wrench* are located in a bag on the cargo area
floor.
If the car is not equipped with the accessory
spare wheel then the jack need not be stored in
the car.
WARNING
When the towing eye and emergency punc-
ture repair kit are stored in the foam block,
they must always be strapped in with the ten-
sioning strap.

Jack*
Use the jack to raise the car when changing a
wheel.
The original jack should only be used for chang-
ing to the spare wheel. The jack's thread must
always be well greased.
NOTE
The normal car jack is only designed for occa-
sional, short-term use, such as when chang-
ing a wheel after a puncture, changing to win-
ter/summer wheels, etc. Only the jack for the
specific car model may be used to raise the
car. If the car is to be jacked up more often, or
for a longer time than is required just to
change a wheel, use of a garage jack is rec-
ommended. In this instance, follow the
instructions for use that come with the equip-
ment.
