• Avoid driving over obstacles. The
compact spare tyre diameter is
smaller than the diameter of a con-
ventional tyre and reduces the
ground clearance approximately
2.5 cm (1 inch), which could result
in damage to the vehicle.
• Do not take the vehicle through an
automatic car wash whilst the com-
pact spare tyre is installed.
• Do not use tyre chains on the tem-
porary compact tyre. Because of
the smaller size, a tyre chain will
not fit properly. This could damage
the vehicle and result in loss of the
chain.
• Temporary compact tyre should
not be installed on the front axle if
the vehicle must be driven in snow
or on ice.
• Do not use the temporary compact
tyre on any other vehicle because
this tyre has been designed espe-
cially for your vehicle.
• The temporary compact tyre tread
life is shorter than a regular tyre.
Inspect your temporary compact
tyre regularly and replace worn
compact spare tyres with the same
size and design, mounted on the
same wheel.
• The temporary compact
should not be used on any other
wheels, nor should standard tyres,
snow tyres, wheel covers or trim
rings be used with the temporary
compact spare wheel. If such use
is attempted, damage to these
items or other car components
may occur.
• Do not use more than one tempo-
rary compact tyre at a time.
• Do not tow a trailer whilst the tem-
porary compact tyre is installed.
