Spare wheel The spare wheel can be classified as
a temporary spare wheel depending
on the size compared to the other
mounted wheels and country
regulations. In this case a permissible maximum speed applies, even
though no label at the spare wheel
indicates this.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. Do not drive faster than
50 mph. Take curves slowly. Do not
use for a long period of time.
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.
3-door / 5-door hatchback
The spare wheel is located in the load
compartment beneath the floor
covering. It is secured with a wing nut.
Fitting a double load-bay floor in this
case in the upper position 3 57.
To remove, unscrew wing nut, lift
spare wheel, move to a vertical
position and remove from above.
When stowing the replaced wheel or
the temporary spare wheel back in
the spare wheel well, always secure
with the wing nut.
Fitting the spare wheel
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-skid surface. The front
wheels must be in the straight-
ahead position.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or
P .
● Remove the spare wheel.
● Never change more than one wheel at once.
● Use the jack only to change wheels in case of puncture, not
for seasonal winter or summer
tyre change.
● The jack is maintenance-free.

Vehicle care191●If the ground on which the vehicle
is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be
placed under the jack.
● Take heavy objects out of the vehicle before jacking up.
● No people or animals may be in the vehicle when it is jacked-up.
● Never crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.
● Do not start the vehicle when it is
raised on the jack.
● Before screwing in the wheel bolts, clean them and lightly coat
the taper of each wheel bolt with
commercially available grease.9 Warning
Do not grease the thread of the
wheel bolt.
1. Steel wheels:
Pull off the wheel cover.
Alloy wheels with bolt caps Disengage wheel bolt caps with a
screwdriver and remove. To
protect the wheel, place a soft
cloth between the screwdriver
and the alloy wheel.
2. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it locates securely and loosen
each wheel bolt by half a turn.
The wheels might be protected by
locking wheel bolts. To loosen
these specific bolts, first attach
the adapter for the locking wheel
bolts onto the head of the bolt
before installing the wheel
wrench. The adapter is located in
the glovebox.
3. Ensure the jack is correctly positioned under the relevant
vehicle jacking point.
On versions with sill panels or
retrofitted sill panels, no jack may
be used. The vehicle may be
damaged.

If possible, 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
and fit it instead of the spare
wheel.
● Drive particularly carefully on wet
and snow-covered road
surfaces.
