93) The space-saver wheel is specific to
your car: do not use it on other models, or
use the space-saver wheel of other models
on your car. The space-saver wheel must
only be used in the event of an emergency.
Never use it for more than strictly necessary
and never exceed 80 km/h. "Warning! For
temporary use only! 80 km/h max!" Replace
with standard wheel as soon as possible.
Never remove or cover the sticker on the
space-saver wheel. Never apply a wheel
cap on a space-saver wheel. The vehicle's
driving characteristics will be modified with
the space-saver wheel fitted. Avoid violent
acceleration and braking, abrupt steering
and fast cornering.
94) The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tire gets punctured or damaged, on the
car with which it is supplied or on other
cars of the same model. Any other use,
e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or
different things, is strictly prohibited. Never
use it to carry out maintenance or repairs
under the vehicle or to change summer/
winter wheels and vice versa; we advise
you to contact a Jeep Dealership. Never
go under the raised vehicle: use it only in
the positions indicated. Do not use the jack
to lift loads heavier than that indicated on
the label affixed to the jack. Never start the
engine with vehicle raised. If the vehicle is
raised more than necessary, everything can
become more unstable, with the risk of the
vehicle dropping violently. Therefore, only
lift the car just enough to access the space-
saver spare wheel (where provided).
95) When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw"
and joints) can also cause injuries: do
not touch them. If you come into contact
with lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.
96) The space-saver wheel cannot be fitted
with snow chains. If a front (drive) tyre is
punctured and chains are needed, use
a standard wheel from the rear axle and
install the space-saver wheel on the rear
axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front axle, it is possible to use
snow chains.
97) Do not grease wheel bolts.
98) Ensure to use always the correct
wheel bolts if changing the wheels. When
installing the spare wheel for temporary
usage, the bolts for alloy wheels can also
be used.
WARNING
25) The use of a spare wheel that is smaller
than the other wheels or in combination
with winter tyres could affect driveability.
Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
