Wheels and Tires WARNINGS Chock the diagonally opposite wheel to the punctured tire with an appropriate block or wheel chock. A wheel chock may be located in the B-pillar or in a storage compartment in the front right-hand side stepwell. Make sure that the arrows on directional tires point in the direction of rotation when your vehicle is moving forward. If you have to fit a spare tire with the arrows pointing in the opposite direction have the tire refitted as soon as possible. 1. Insert the flat end of the lug wrench between the wheel rim and the wheel trim and carefully remove the wheel trim. 2. Use the locking lug nut key to loosen the locking lug nut. 3.

Removing a Road Wheel WARNINGS Park your vehicle so that you do not obstruct the flow of traffic or place yourself in any danger and set up a warning triangle. Switch the ignition off and apply the parking brake. If your vehicle has a manual transmission, shift into first or reverse gear. If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, shift into park (P). Make sure all passengers are out of your vehicle. Make sure that your vehicle is on firm and level ground with the front wheels pointing straight ahead. Installing a Road Wheel WARNINGS Use only approved wheel and tire sizes. Using other wheel and tire sizes could damage your vehicle and will make the National Type Approval invalid. Make sure there is no lubrication (grease or oil) on the threads or the surface between the wheel lugs and nuts. This can cause the lug nuts to loosen while driving. 262 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 03/2014, Third Printing
