Some of the resulted positions enter into a complete set only certain updatings or are established to order.

The first-aid set for repair of tyres

The first-aid set for repair of tyres is under a luggage carrier flooring.

The compressor enters into the first-aid set for repair of tyres for tyre inflating герметизирующее means for hermetic sealing of damages of the tyre, and also. They allow reliably герметизировать the damages of the tyre caused by extraneous subjects in diameter about to 4 mm. Thus the foreign matter can remain in the tyre.

Instructions for use герметизирующим can be found means and the compressor accordingly on a bottle with герметизирующим means and on the compressor case.

Steel spare wheel

Extraction of a spare wheel

PERFORMANCE ORDER

Lift a flooring for the plastic handle. Suspend a flooring by means of the handle for luggage carrier consolidation. Unscrew the handle rotation counter-clockwise. Take a spare wheel. Return a flooring into place and only then close a luggage carrier cover.

Packing of a faulty wheel

Your car can be completed on manufacturer with a steel spare wheel. Owing to the constructive data (the size of a disk/tyre, rubber structure, protector drawing etc.) the spare wheel, as a rule, does not correspond on the working parametres to serial tyres of the car. Therefore you should remember following restrictions:

The steel spare wheel is authorised to be maintained only on the car of your model. It can be mounted only on your car.

In case of installation of a steel spare wheel road performance of your car changes.

The steel spare wheel is intended only for short-term installation in case of tyre "puncture". As soon as possible replace a steel spare wheel with a standard wheel with the serial tyre.

If the size of the tyre of a steel spare wheel differs from a serial wheel under certain circumstances it is impossible to mount chains противоскольжения on a spare wheel.

Serial spare wheel

The spare wheel is in a niche under a luggage carrier flooring.

Extraction of a spare wheel

Packing of a faulty wheel

Cars exported to some countries are completed not with a wheel with the standard tyre, and easier compact emergency колесом*.

Spare wheel with the directed drawing of a protector

If as a spare wheel the wheel with the directed drawing of a protector it is necessary to remember the following is used:

• The direction of rotation of a wheel is defined by a label in the form of an arrow put on sidewall of a tyre cover.
• If in case of a puncture the spare wheel has to be established встречно to the direction of movement defined by drawing of a protector this measure should carry only a temporality as the tyre in this case cannot realise to the full optimum road performance inherent in it, such as absence of propensity to hydroplaning, noiselessness and wear resistance. Especially we recommend to remember it in crude weather, соразмеряя speed of movement with a condition проезжей parts.

Compact spare wheel (emergency wheel)

The compact spare (emergency) wheel is in a niche under a luggage carrier flooring.

Use of an emergency wheel

The emergency wheel is intended in emergency to reach only to a workshop. Therefore at the first possibility replace it with a wheel with the standard tyre.

On operation of an emergency wheel some restrictions extend. The emergency wheel cannot be used on cars of other models.

On a disk of an emergency wheel putting on of standard or winter tyres is not supposed.

Chains противоскольжения

For technical reasons putting on of chains противоскольжения on a compact emergency wheel is not supposed.

Therefore in need of movement with chains противоскольжения in case of "puncture" of a forward wheel put an emergency wheel back. In turn put on the removed back wheel of a chain противоскольжения and establish it on a place of a faulty forward wheel.

Wheel replacement

Preparation

Replacement of a wheel demands preliminary preparation.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

Stop on an equal surface and whenever possible far away from a transport stream. Will land all passengers and track, that they were out of a dangerous zone (for example, from an outer side of a road protection). Tighten completely a manual brake. Include the first transfer (a manual transmission) or establish the lever of the selector of automatic transmission in position «Р». At movement with the trailer: disconnect the trailer from the car. Take from a luggage carrier the complete set of the tool and a spare wheel.

At a slope проезжей to a part in addition enclose an emphasis under an opposite wheel.

Observe requirements of rules of traffic.

Wheel replacement

Process of replacement of a wheel includes mentioned below stages.

Operations after wheel replacement

After wheel replacement it is necessary to execute a number of operations.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

The removed wheel lay in a niche for a spare wheel and fix. Lay on a place the tool complete set. Urgently check up pressure of air in the tyre of the established spare wheel. Check up the moment of an inhaling of wheel bolts динамометрическим a key. The standard moment is specified in Specifications. As soon as possible replace a faulty wheel.

If at wheel replacement it will be found out that wheel bolts have rusted or hardly go on a carving, it is necessary to replace them before measurement of the moment of an inhaling. To the control of the moment of an inhaling, care for the sake of, go only with moderate speed.

Full-size caps of wheels

For access to wheel bolts remove full-size caps.

Removal

Installation

Decorative caps of wheels

For access to wheel bolts remove decorative caps.

Removal

PERFORMANCE ORDER

Enter entering into the tool complete set wire capture into an aperture of a decorative cap. Pull and remove a decorative cap.

Wheel bolts with caps

Removal

Installation

Caps serve for protection of wheel bolts.

Easing and tightening of wheel bolts

Loosen the wheel bolts and only then lift the car.

Easing

Tightening

Executed in the screw-driver handle internal шестигранником it is impossible to use for страгивания or for an inhaling of wheel bolts. Cautiously press a foot edge of the handle of a key if the bolt does not move. Occupy thus steady position and keep for the car.

Dismantle and wheel installation

After страгивания wheel bolts and поднимания the car with a jack replace a wheel in the following sequence:

Wheel dismantle

PERFORMANCE ORDER

Шестигранником screw-driver handles (from the tool complete set) turn out the most highly located bolt of a wheel and put it on a pure surface. In the released aperture screw in a hand entering into the tool complete set a safety finger. Then turn out other bolts it agree to the above-stated description. Remove a wheel. The safety finger remains in an aperture.

Wheel installation

Wheel bolts should be pure and easily go on a carving. Check up a surface прилегания wheels and naves. Remove pollution on the given surfaces before wheel installation.

Internal шестигранник in the screw-driver handle facilitates вворачивание and a reversing of wheel bolts. The perestavnoj core of a screw-driver should be thus taken out.

At installation of wheels with the directed drawing of a protector do not forget about a direction of rotation of a wheel.

Executed in the screw-driver handle internal шестигранник do not use for страгивания or for an inhaling of wheel bolts.

Tyres with the directed drawing of a protector

Tyres with the directed drawing of a protector should be mounted with the account of a direction of rotation.

The direction of rotation of a wheel is defined by a label in the form of an arrow put on sidewall of a tyre cover. Necessarily observe the specified direction of rotation. Only in this case it will be possible to realise optimum qualities of the given tyres, such as absence of propensity to hydroplaning, noiselessness and wear resistance.

Installation of a spare wheel встречно to the direction of movement defined by drawing of a protector, in case of "puncture" demands care at movement as the tyre in this case cannot realise optimum qualities inherent in it to the full.

For full use of advantages of the tyre with the directed drawing of a protector as soon as possible replace the damaged tyre for restoration of a correct direction of rotation of all tyres.
