gency spare wheel if the dimensions are
different to those of the wheel being
replaced. R
Only use a spare wheel/emergency spare

Emergency spare wheelWheels and tyres

You should regularly check the pressure of the
emergency spare wheel, particularly prior to
long trips, and correct the pressure as neces-
sary (Y page 408). The value on the wheel or as
given in the "Wheels and tyres" section is valid
(Y page 432).
An emergency spare wheel may also be fitted
against the direction of rotation. Observe the
time restriction on use as well as the speed lim-
itation specified on the emergency spare wheel.
Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear. This also applies to the
emergency spare wheel.
i If you are driving with the emergency spare
wheel fitted, the tyre pressure loss warning
system or the tyre pressure monitor cannot
function reliably. Only restart the tyre pres-
sure loss warning system or tyre pressure
monitor when the defective wheel has been
replaced with a new wheel.
Vehicles with tyre pressure monitor: after
fitting an emergency spare wheel, the system
may still display the tyre pressure of the
removed wheel for a few minutes. The value
displayed for the position where the emer-
gency spare wheel is fitted is not the same as the current tyre pressure of the emergency
spare wheel. Removing/stowing the emergency
