Have the tightening torque checked
immediately after a wheel is changed. The
wheels could come loose if they are not
tightened to a torque of 96 lb/ft (130 Nm).
Turn the jack back to its initial position and
store it together with the rest of the tirechange tool kit in the trunk/cargo

Depending on the size of the wheel, you

it securely in the trunk/cargo
compartment.
USA only: when you are driving
with the
emergency spare wheel mounted, the tire
pressure monitoring system cannot
function reliably. Only restart the tire
pressure monitoring system when the
defective wheel has been replaced with a
new wheel.
All wheels mounted must be equipped with
functioning sensors. The defective wheel
should no longer be in the vehicle.
