• Remove jack and stow it in the vehicle tool kit.
• Check the tire pressure.
• Re-tighten the wheel bolts to the specified torque
with a torque wrench after a distance of 30 miles
(about 50 km).
If the battery is dead, the engine can be started with
jumper cables from another vehicle’s battery.
WARNING!
After changing a wheel, you must, for safety reasons,
• have the specified tightening torque checked. The
wheels could otherwise work loose.
• check the tire pressure and correct it if necessary.
• retighten the wheel bolts and wheel nuts to the
specified tightening torque once the vehicle has
been driven for 30 miles (50 km).
• have a reversed direction of tire rotation corrected
as soon as possible at a qualified specialist
workshop. The vehicle handling characteristics
could otherwise be affected.
WARNING!
A battery will also produce hydrogen gas, which
is flammable and very explosive. Avoid open
flames and the formation of sparks in the vicinity
of the batteries. Refrain from smoking or cell
phone use. Avoid improper connection of jumper
cables.
Observe safety precautions when handling
batteries.
Exercise care near moving engine components and
electrical cables.
Failure to follow these directions will cause
damage to the electronic components and can lead
to a battery explosion and severe injury or death.
