Removal:
1. Turn the cap 1 slightly counterclockwise with the wheel wrench and remove it.
2. Take the adapter 3 from the vehicle tool kit and insert it into the wheel bolt.
3. Unscrew the locking wheel bolt 2.
After tightening the bolt, remove the adapter and reinstall the cap.
The cap is installed correctly when, on fitting, the flat part of its inner surface sits on one of the raised areas of the wheel bolt.
The adapter number is stamped on its end face.
