Emergency assistance
"'Secure the collapsible spare tire with the hand -
whee l.
"'Fo ld the cargo floor cover back into p lace.
Snow chains
Using snow chains on the collapsible spare tire is
not permitted for technical reasons.
If you have to drive with snow chains and a front
tire fa ils, mount the collapsible spare tire in
p la ce of a rear tire. Insta ll the snow cha ins on the
rear tire that you removed, and install that in
p lace of the front tire that failed.
A WARNING
-
- Only use the collapsible spare tire in emer ­
gencies and drive very carefully, especially if
it is more than six years old .
- The compressor and the hose can become
very hot during operation which increases
the risk of burn injuries.
- After installing a collapsible spare tire, the
t ir e pressure must be checked as quickly as
poss ible to reduce the risk of an acc ident.
- Do not drive faster than 50 mph (80 km/h)
with a collapsible spare tire. Driving faster
than that increases the risk of an accident .
- Avoid full-throttle acceleration, heavy brak­
ing, and fast cornering with the collapsible
spare tire, because this increases the risk of
an accident .
- Never drive using more than one collapsible
spare tire, because this increases the risk of
an accident.
- Normal tires or winter tires must not be
mounted on the collaps ible spare tire rim.
«J:) Note
The compressor must be switched off after 12
minutes at the most to reduce the risk of
overheating . Let the compressor cool down
for several minutes before using it again.
