The tyre pressure of the spare wheel must be
checked (preferably whenever the tyre pres-
sure is checked – see sticker on fuel tank flap
›››
page
213) to ensure the spare wheel re-
mains ready for use.
If the spare wheel is not the same size or de-
sign as the tyres that are mounted on the car
(for example if the car has winter tyres or
tyres with direction tread), only use the spare
tyre for a short period of time in the event of
breakdown and drive with the corresponding

care
.
It must be replaced as soon as possible for a
wheel with a normal size and finish.
Temporary spare wheel
If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary
spare wheel, there will be a warning sign on
the rim of the wheel.
Follow the instructions below when driving
with this wheel fitted.
After fitting the wheel, the warning sign
must not be covered.
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph)
with the spare wheel and take great care
while driving. Avoid heavy acceleration, hard
braking and fast cornering.
The tyre pressure is the same as that of the
standard tyres.

Advice
Only use this spare wheel to reach the
nearest Official Service, as it is not designed
for permanent use.
WARNING
Under no circumstances must damaged
spare wheels be used.
If the spare wheel is different in size or de-
sign to the tyres currently fitted, never drive
faster than 80 km/h (50 mph). Avoid heavy
acceleration, hard braking and fast cornering.

Follow the instructions given on the tempora-
ry spare wheel label.

The tyre pressure of the spare wheel must al-
ways correspond to the highest pressure pre-
scribed for the model of vehicle in question.

Tyre monitoring systems

Tyre pressure*
The tyre pressure monitoring system uses
ABS sensors to compare the revolutions and
the circumference of each wheel. Should the
circumference of any wheel change, the
warning lamp  on the general dash panel
›››
page 104
will light up and an audible
warning will be heard.
Tyre circumference may change if:
Tyre pressure is too low
Tyre structure is damaged
Vehicle load not evenly distributed
wheels on one axle are subjected to greater
load, (e.g. driving with trailer, uphill, down-
hill);
Snow chains are fitted
The temporary spare wheel is fitted
One wheel on the axle has been changed
Basic system settings
Should the tyre pressure change or if one or
more wheels are changed or the position of
the wheel on the vehicle is changed, e.g.
changing round the front and rear wheels, or
where a warning lamp lights up when driv-
ing, the system must be adjusted as follows:
Inflate all tyres to the prescribed pressures
