What to do in an emergency If you have a flat tyre (with spare tyre)
ground clearance approximately
2.5 cm (1 inch), which could result
in damage to the vehicle.
䳜 Do not take the vehicle through
an automatic car wash whilst the
compact spare tyre is installed.
䳜 Do not use tyre chains on the
temporary compact tyre. Because
of the smaller size, a tyre chain
will not fit properly. This could
damage the vehicle and result in
loss of the chain.
䳜 Temporary compact tyre should
not be installed on the front axle
if the vehicle must be driven in
snow or on ice.
䳜 Do not use the temporary com
-
pact tyre on any other vehicle
because this tyre has been
designed especially for your vehi
-
cle.
䳜 The temporary compact tyre
tread life is shorter than a regular
tyre. Inspect your temporary
compact tyre regularly and
replace worn compact spare tyres
with the same size and design,
mounted on the same wheel.
䳜 The temporary compact tyre
should not be used on any other
wheels, nor should standard
tyres, snow tyres, wheel covers or
trim rings be used with the tem
-
porary compact spare wheel. If
such use is attempted, damage to
these items or other car compo
-
nents may occur.
䳜 Do not use more than one tempo
-
rary compact tyre at a time.
䳜 Do not tow a trailer whilst the
temporary compact tyre is
installed.
