WARNING Risk of accident due toincor‐
re ct wheel and tyre dimensions
Driving with th e spare wheel fitted can
se verely impair theve hicle's driving charac‐
te rist ics.
To avo idrisks, obser vethefo llowing points: #
Drive carefully #
Neverfit more than one spare wheel
which is dif fere nt from the wheel tobe
re placed. #
Only use the spare wheel for a short
period of time. #
Change a spare wheel which is of a dif‐
fere nt size at the nearest qualified spe‐
cialist workshop. Be sure topay atten‐
tion tothe cor rect wheel and tyre
dimensions as well as the tyre type. R
When using a spare wheel (which is dif fere nt
from the wheel tobe replaced) a top speed of
80 km/h must not be exceeded.
R The tyre pressure of the spare wheel must be
ch ecked before starting a journey
(/ page 251).
R Have the emer gency spa rewheel replaced by
a qu alified specialist workshop.
The following should be checkedre gular ly, partic‐
ularly prior tolong journe ys:
R the secure positioning of the spare tyre
R the tyre pressure of the spare wheel (adjust
th e tyre pressure if necessary) (/ page 251)
R thefast enings of the spare wheel brac ket
The spare wheel is located in a spare wheel
brac ket under there ar of theve hicle.
Re place the tyres af ter six years at the latest,
