Snow chains
For technical reasons, snow chains must not be
used on the compact temporary spare wheel.
Should you have a puncture on one of the front
wheels when using snow chains, fit the compact
temporary spare wheel in place of one of the rear
wheels. You can then attach the snow chains to
the wheel taken from the rear and use this wheel
to replace the punctured front wheel.
A
WARNING
-
- The tyre pressure must be checked as soon
as possible after fitting the spare wheel- an
incorrectly inflated tyre can increase the risk
of accident. You can find the tyre pressures
here qpage 249, Fig. 223.
- Do not drive faster than 80 km/h when the
compact temporary spare wheel is fitted -
higher speeds can cause an accident.
- Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking and
fast cornering when the compact temporary
spare wheel is fitted - risk of accident!
- Never use two or more compact spare tyres
at the same time - risk of accident!
- No other type of tyre (normal summer or
winter tyres) may be fitted on the compact
temporary spare wheel.
Jump-starting
Before starting the engine
If necessary, the engine can be started by con­
necting it to the battery of another vehicle.
If the engine fails to start because of a dis­
charged battery, the battery can be connected to
Mobility
the battery of another vehicle to start the engine.
Suitable jump leads are required.
Both batteries must be rated at 12 Volts. The ca­
pacity (Ah) of the booster battery should not be
significantly lower than that of the discharged
battery.
Jump leads
The jump leads must be heavy enough to carry
the starter current. Refer to the details given by
the manufacturer.
Only use jump leads with insulated battery
clamps.
Positive cable - usually red.
Negative cable - usually black.
A
WARNING
- When it is discharged the battery can freeze
at temperatures around 0
°
C. A frozen bat­
tery must first be thawed out before con­
necting the jump leads, as it could other­
wise explode.
- Note the safety warnings referring to work­
ing in the engine compartment q page 236.

Note
- There must be no contact between the two
vehicles as otherwise current could flow as
soon as the positive terminals are connec­
ted and the boosting battery could be dis­
charged.
- The discharged battery must be properly
connected to the vehicle's electrical system.
- Switch
off
the car telephone if necessary.
