Spare wheel
Temporary spare wheel
Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare
wheel.
The temporary spare wheel is
designed for use on your vehicle only.
Use of the temporary spare wheel
could affect driveability, particularly if
using winter tyres. Have the defective
tyre renewed as soon as possible and
have the wheel balanced and fitted to
the vehicle.
The temporary spare wheel is located
in the load compartment below the
floor cover and is secured with a
screw-in retainer.
Push both levers on the floor cover
towards the handle and pull up the
cover by the handle. Hang the hook
to the upper part of the tailgate
opening.

Remove the retainer by rotating it
anticlockwise and remove temporary
spare wheel from the spare wheel
well.
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.
When the temporary spare wheel is
fitted, do not take the vehicle through
an automatic vehicle wash with guide
rails. The temporary spare wheel may
get caught on the rails, causing
damage to the tyre, wheel and other
vehicle parts.
The use of tyre chains is not permitted
on the temporary spare wheel.

direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
