movement. If the arrow on tire sidewall does not point
in direction of vehicle forward movement when using
the spare wheel, observe the following restrictions:
• Do not exceed vehicle speed of 50 mph (80 km/h).

tire repaired or replaced as appropriate.

Warning!
The spare wheel rim is for temporary use only. Use
for over a total of 12 000 miles (20 000 km) may
cause wheel rim failure leading to an accident and
possible injuries.
The dimensions of the spare wheel are different
from those of road wheels. As a result, the vehicle
handling characteristics change when driving with
a mounted spare wheel.
The spare wheel should only be used temporarily,
and replaced with a regular road wheel as quickly
as possible.
