What You’ll Need

3. Wheel brace / lug nut tool

Tool location:

Step-by-Step Tyre Changing Instructions

1. Prepare the Vehicle

1. Park on a flat, stable surface

2. Apply the handbrake

3. Turn on hazard lights

2. Loosen Wheel Nuts

Using the lug nut tool, slightly loosen the wheel nuts on the damaged tyre before lifting the vehicle.

This prevents the wheel from spinning once it is off the ground.

3. Set Up the Jack

1. Insert both jack poles together to form the handle

2. Attach the handle to the jack using the hooked end

3. Position the jack correctly before lifting

   
   

Important:

Only use the designated reinforced jacking points:

1. Specific points are provided for front and rear

2. Never jack the vehicle from any other surface

   
   

4. Raise the Vehicle

Slowly jack the vehicle until the damaged tyre is clear of the ground.

5. Lower the Spare Tyre

1. Open the rear door

2. Locate the access hole in the floor

3. Insert the tool and rotate counter-clockwise to lower the spare tyre cage

4. Ensure the cage is fully lowered before removing the spare

   
   

6. Fit the Spare Tyre

1. Remove the damaged tyre

2. Fit the spare tyre onto the wheel hub

3. Hand-tighten the wheel nuts

7. Lower and Secure

1. Carefully lower the vehicle back to the ground

2. Fully tighten all wheel nuts using the wheel brace

3. Double-check that the wheel is secure before driving

   
   

8. Stow the Damaged Tyre

1. Place the damaged tyre into the spare tyre cage

2. Wind it fully back up to its original position under the vehicle
