Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Removing/storing the wheel
Spare wheel
When using an emergency or spare wheel make sure to fit a wheel with the
appropriate dimensions and design as soon as possible.

WARNING
If the spare tyre with a non-specific or opposite direction of rotation has
■
to be fitted in the event of a puncture, then drive carefully. The tyre no lon-
ger retains its optimal characteristics in this situation.
If the dimensions or design of the spare wheel differ from the tyres fitted
■
to the vehicle (e.g. winter tyres or low-profile tyres), it must only be used
briefly in the event of a puncture and if an appropriately cautious style of
driving is adopted.
If the dimensions or design of the temporary spare wheel differ from the
■
fitted tyres, never drive faster than 80 km/h (or 50 mph).
Never use the temporary spare wheel if it is damaged.
