Removal the jack
1. Turn the handle and remove the cover.
2. Loosen the jack and remove it.
3. When folding the jack, do not use a screwdriver, as this may damage the jack fastenings.
Installing the jack
1. Stop the vehicle on a level, hard surface.
2. Firmly apply the parking brake and block the wheel located on the diagonal opposite side of the jack.
3. Place the jack on the ground and rotate it until its groove fits into the mounting location on the body.
4. Rotate the jack using the lever and adapter to raise the vehicle so that the tire is slightly raised off the ground.
Warning! A vehicle raised with a jack is in an unstable position, so it is dangerous to be under the vehicle at this time.
Attention: For safe use of the jack it is necessary:
- Turn off the engine.
- The ground surface must be firm and level.
- Do not lift a loaded vehicle.
- There should be no objects above or below the jack.
- Use the jack only for changing wheels or putting on snow chains.
Note: Use only the jack that comes with your vehicle. Other jacks may vary in lifting force or shape.

This spare tire is only used in case of a flat tire.

- Check tire pressure periodically and maintain it within the specified limits of 420 kPa (4.2 kg/cm²).
- After installing the spare tire, drive at a speed of no more than 100 km/h and try to replace it with a standard one as quickly as possible.
- The spare tire and rim are designed for this vehicle only. Do not install another spare tire or wheel on your vehicle, or install wheels from your vehicle on others.
- Snow chains must not be fitted to the spare wheel. If it is necessary to use a chain in the event of a puncture of the front wheel, the spare wheel must be placed in the back and the freed rear wheel in the front, then the chain must be put on.
