Spare wheel Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare
wheel.
If mounting a spare wheel, which is
different from the other wheels, this
wheel might be classified as a
temporary spare wheel and the
corresponding speed limits apply,
even though no label indicates this.
Seek the assistance of a workshop to
check the applicable speed limit.
The spare wheel has a steel rim.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that is smaller than the other wheels or in combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
The spare wheel is located in a holder
beneath the vehicle floor.

3. Fit the wheel wrench on onehexagon bolt and turn it
anticlockwise until a resistance is
noticeable.
4. Proceed with the other hexagon bolt in the same way.5. Lift the spare wheel holder andunhook both catches.
6. Lower the spare wheel holder.
7. Detach the safety cable.
8. Lower holder all the way and remove spare wheel.
9. Change the wheel. The damaged wheel must be
secured in the load compartment,
see below.
10. Lift the empty spare wheel holder and insert the safety cable.
11. Lift the spare wheel holder further

12. Close the empty spare wheelholder by turning both hexagon
bolts clockwise successively
using the wheel wrench.
13. Fit the caps above both hexagon bolts.
14. Stow wheel wrench and the jack in the stowage in front of the
tailgate.
15. Close the stowage compartment cover.
When stowing the spare wheel in the
spare wheel holder, note that the
wheel is positioned with the tyre valve
above the recess of the wheel holder.
Stowing a damaged wheel in the
load compartment The spare wheel holder is not
designed for other tyre sizes than the
spare wheel.
A damaged wheel wider than the
spare wheel must be stowed in the
load compartment and secured with a strap. Vehicle tools 3 245.
The seats of the third row must be
folded down 3 79.1. Position the wheel close to the left
sidewall of the load compartment.
2. Place the loop end of the strap through the front lashing eye on
the left side.
3. Place the hook end of the strap through the loop and pull it until
the strap is fastened securely to
the lashing eye.
4. Insert the strap through the spokes of the wheel as shown in
the illustration.
5. Mount the hook to the rear left lashing eye.
6. Tighten the strap and secure it using the buckle.
9 Danger
Always drive with folded up and
engaged rear seat backrests when stowing a damaged full size wheel
in the load compartment.
260Vehicle care9Warning
Storing a jack, a wheel or other
equipment in the load
compartment could cause injury if they are not fixed properly. During a sudden stop or a collision, looseequipment could strike someone.
Always store jack and tools in the
respective storage compartments
and secure them by fixing.
Damaged wheel placed in the load
compartment must always be
secured by the strap.
Temporary spare wheel
The use of the temporary spare wheel
could affect driveability. Have the
defective tyre renewed or repaired as soon as possible.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. Do not drive faster than
80 km/h. Take curves slowly. Do not
use for a long period of time.
If your vehicle gets a flat tyre on the
rear while towing another vehicle,
mount the temporary spare wheel in the front and the full tyre in the rear.
Tyre chains 3 251.
Spare wheel with directional tyre
Fit directional tyres such that they roll in the direction of travel. The rolling
direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
The following applies to tyres fitted
opposing the rolling direction:
■ Driveability may be affected. Have the defective tyre renewed or
repaired as soon as possible.
■ Drive particularly carefully on wet and snow-covered road surfaces.Jump starting
Do not start with quick charger.
A vehicle with a discharged battery
can be started using jump leads and
the battery of another vehicle.9 Warning
Be extremely careful when starting
with jump leads. Any deviation
from the following instructions can
lead to injuries or damage caused
by battery explosion or damage to the electrical systems of both
vehicles.
9 Warning
Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
■ Never expose the battery to naked flames or sparks.

Data storage modules in the vehicle A large number of electronic
components of your vehicle contain
data storage modules temporarily or
permanently storing technical data
about the condition of the vehicle,
events and errors. In general, this
technical information documents the
condition of parts, modules, systems
or the environment:
■ operating conditions of system components (e.g. filling levels)
■ status messages of the vehicle and
its single components ( e.g. number
of wheel revolutions / rotational
speed, deceleration, lateral
acceleration)
■ dysfunctions and defects in important system components
