BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing or coasting downhill).
This could cause fuel to flow into the cat-
alytic converter and damage it beyond re-
pair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the servo-
brake and electrical power steering sys-
tem (where provided) are not operating
until the engine is started, a greater effort
will therefore be required to press the
brake pedal or turn the steering wheel.

The space-saver spare wheel
(where provided) is specific
to your car, do not use it on other
models, or use the spare wheel of oth-
er models on your car. The space-
saver spare wheel shall only be used
in an emergency. It shall only be used
for the distance necessary to reach a
service point and the car speed shall
not exceed 80 km/h. The spare wheel
has an orange sticker that summaris-
es the main cautions for use and lim-
itations. The sticker should never be
removed or covered. Never fit a wheel
cap on a space-saver spare wheel.
The sticker gives the following infor-
mation in four languages: Caution!
For temporary use only! 80 km/h max!
Replace by normal wheel as soon as
possible. Do not cover this label in
use.
If you change the type of wheel (al-
loy rims instead of steel rims) you will
have to change the entire set of fas-
tening bolts with another set of suit-
ably sized bolts.
