If you need to use an emergency or spare wheel, make sure to fit a standard
wheel of the appropriate dimensions and design as soon as possible.
After changing the spare wheel, the tyre pressure should be adjusted. In vehi- cles with tyre pressure monitoring, save tyre pressure values » page 158.
WARNING■
If you have to fit the spare tyre with a non-specified direction or an oppo-
site direction of rotation due to a puncture, then drive carefully. The best
properties of the tyre are no longer present in this situation.■
If the dimensions or design of the spare wheel differ from the tyres fitted
to the vehicle (e.g. winter tyres or low-profile tyres), it must only be used
briefly in the event of a puncture and if an appropriately cautious style of
driving is adopted.
■
If the dimensions or design of the temporary spare wheel differ from the
fitted tyres, never drive faster than 80 km/h (or 50 mph).
■
Never use the temporary spare wheel if it is damaged.
