Safety First Operating instructions Tips and Maintenance Technical Data
– Insert the adapter onto the wheel bolt and push it on as far as it
will go ⇒ page 240, fig. 180.
– Fit the box spanner as far as it will go over the adapter.
– Loosen or tighten the wheel bolt as appropriate.
Code number
The code number of the anti-theft wheel bolt is stamped on the front of the
adaptor.
The code number should be noted and kept in a safe place, as it is only by
using the code number that a duplicate adaptor can be obtained from an
Authorised Service Centre.
Tyres with directional tread pattern
Tyres with directional tread pattern must be fitted so that they
rotate in the correct direction.
A directional tread pattern can be identified by arrows on the sidewall that
point in the direction of rotation. Always note the direction of rotation indi-
cated when fitting the wheel. This is important so that these tyres can give
maximum grip and avoid excessive noise, tread wear and aquaplaning.
If, in an emergency, you have to fit the spare wheel so it rotates in the wrong
direction, you must drive extremely carefully. The tyre will not give optimum
performance. This is particularly important when driving on wet roads.
To benefit from the advantages of tyres with this type of tread pattern, the
defective tyre should be replaced as soon as possible so that all tyres again
rotate in the correct direction.
Tyre repair kit (Tyre-Mobility-System)*
General Observations and safety advice
Your vehicle is equipped with the tyre repair kit called the Tyre mobility
system.
Beneath the floor of the stowage compartment there is a sealant and a
compressor which should be used in case of puncture.
The Tyre Mobility System will allow you to safely repair damage to a tyre by
penetration of a foreign object to 4mm diameter.
The foreign object can be left inside the tyre.
The sealant comes with instructions for use.
There is also a guide to using the compressor.
WARNING
• The sealant should not be used if the tyre has been damaged as a result
of going flat.
• Follow the instructions for your safety and use on the compressor and
the sealant packaging.
• Do not drive at more than 80 km/h, avoid accelerating or braking hard
or taking curves at high speed.
• A tyre that has been repaired with sealant should only be used provi-
sionally, and for a short time Therefore, your car should be taken carefully
to the nearest specialised workshop.
For the sake of the environment
If you want to dispose of the sealant bottle, go to a company that treats waste
products.
