Wheel assembly on the Cabriolet

TIP

The easiest way to assemble the wheel is to lay the carrier on its side.

To assemble the wheel, push the axle into the axle socket until it can go no further. As you do this, the spring clip of the

axle socket must audibly engage in the axle groove of the wheel.

Spring clip

Test for proper assembly by trying to pull the wheel outwards after assembling. The wheel’s axle should remain locked in the axle socket and cannot be pulled outwards.

DANGER

Always check that both wheels are properly seated by pulling the wheel hard to one side. To do this, lift the carrier, and make sure that the fi tted wheel cannot be pulled off, by giving it a few good shakes on each side.

To remove the wheel, pull the spring clip out of the hole in the axle socket and pull the wheel out of the axle socket.
