When using an emergency spare wheel or
spare wheel of a different size, you must not
exceed the maximum speed of 80 km/h.
Snow chains must not be fitted to emergency
spare wheels.
General notes
i Apart from some country-specific var-
iants, the vehicles are not equipped with an
emergency spare wheel. Emergency spare
wheels are specific to the vehicle. For more
information on which emergency spare
wheels are approved for your vehicle, con-
sult a qualified specialist workshop.
You should regularly check the pressure of all
your tyres, including the emergency spare
wheel, particularly prior to long trips, and cor-
rect the pressure as necessary (
Y
page 319).
The value on the wheel or as given in the
"Wheels and tyres" section (
Y
page 332) is
valid.
i If you are driving with the collapsible
emergency spare wheel fitted, the tyre
pressure loss warning system or the tyre
pressure monitor cannot function reliably.
Only restart the tyre pressure loss warning
system/tyre pressure monitor when the
defective wheel has been replaced with a
new wheel.
Vehicles with tyre pressure monitor:
after mounting an emergency spare wheel,
the system may still display the tyre pres-
sure of the removed wheel for a few
minutes. The value displayed for the moun-
ted emergency spare wheel is not the same
as the current tyre pressure of the emer-
gency spare wheel.
An emergency spare wheel may also be fitted
against the direction of rotation. Observe the
time restriction on use as well as the speed
limitation specified on the emergency spare
wheel.
Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear. This also applies to the
emergency spare wheel.
