Depending on the version, the spare wheel
may be designed for use as a temporary

designated by a sticker on the rim. Follow
the instructions on this page and on 3125,
3191.
On vehicles with alloy wheels 3 the spare
wheel may have a steel rim.
Use of a spare wheel together with winter
tyres could alter driving conditions. Have
the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
Use of a spare wheel that is smaller than
the other wheels could alter driving
conditions. In many countries, it is only
permitted as a temporary spare wheel.
Have the defective tyre replaced as soon
as possible. Advice to aid in an emergencywheel 3
zUsing a temporary spare wheel may
change the driving behaviour of the
vehicle, particularly if using winter
tyres3. Replace defective tyre as
quickly as possible, balance wheel
and fit to vehicle.
zFit only one temporary spare wheel.
zDo not drive faster than 80 km/h.
zTake curves slowly.
zDo not use the temporary spare wheel
for a lengthy period.
zReplace temporary spare wheel with full
specification wheel without delay.
zDo not use tyre chains. If tyre chains
must be used when one of the front tyres
has a flat, mount the temporary spare
wheel on the rear axle and transfer one
of the rear wheels to the front axle.
Check the tyre pressure and correct if
necessary 3121, 3191.

standing is soft, a solid board (max. 1 cm
thick) should be placed under the jack.
zBlock the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be changed by placing wedge
blocks or equivalent in front and behind
the wheel.
zNo people or animals may be in the
vehicle when it is jacked up.
zNever crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.
