Lug wrench and towing eyelet
5. Screw the towing eyelet into the lug
wrench as shown in the illustration.
CAUTION
The towing eyelet must be screwed into
the lug wrench as far as possible.
6. With the vehicle still on the ground, use
the lug wrench/towing eyelet to loosen
the wheel nuts ½ – 1 turn by exerting
downward (counterclockwise) pressure.
Jack attachment points
7. There are two jack attachment points on
each side of the vehicle. Position the jack
correctly in the attachment (see the illus-
tration) and crank while simultaneously
guiding the base of the jack to the
ground. The base of the jack must be flat
on a level, firm, non-slippery surface.
Before raising the vehicle, check that the
jack is still correctly positioned in the
attachment.
8. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be
changed is lifted off the ground.
9. Unscrew the wheel nuts completely and
remove the wheel.
