Spare Wheel - Audi TT 2019 Owner's Manual

Mobility
To benefit from the advantages of tyres with this
type of tread pattern, the defective tyre should
be replaced and refitted as soon as possible so
that all tyres again rotate in the correct direction.
After changing a wheel
Fit the hubcap or wheel bolt caps back on, as
►
required.
Put the tools and jack back in the luggage com­
►
partment.
If the replaced wheel will not fit into the spare
►
wheel well, stow it safely in the luggage com­
partment� page 68.
Check the tyre pressure of the fitted wheel as
►
soon as possible.
Adjust the tyre pressures and store them via
►
the infotainment system.
The wheel bolts should be tightened to 120
►
Nm. Have this checked as soon as possible with
a torque wrench. Until then, drive with caution.
Have the flat tyre replaced as quickly as possi­
►
ble.

General notes
Applies to: vehicles with compact temporary spare wheel
Fig. 217
Luggage compartment: Spare wheel
The compact temporary spare wheel is only in­
tended for temporary use over short distances.
Have the damaged wheel checked as soon as pos­
sible by a qualified workshop and, if necessary,
replaced.
Please note the following restrictions when using
the compact temporary spare wheel. The com­
pact temporary spare wheel is designed specifi-
260
cally for this model. For this reason, do not use a
spare wheel from a different type of vehicle.
Removing the spare wheel
► Turn the centre plastic knob
clockwise.
Take out the spare wheel.
►
Removing the jack
Lift open the trim on the right side of the lug-
►
gage compartment and take out the jack.
Snow chains
For technical reasons, snow chains must not be
used on the compact temporary spare wheel.
Should you have a puncture on one of the front
wheels when using snow chains, fit the compact
temporary spare wheel in place of one of the rear
wheels. You can then attach the snow chains to
the wheel taken from the rear and use this wheel
to replace the punctured front wheel.
A
WARNING
- The tyre pressure must be checked as soon
as possible after fitting the spare wheel - an
incorrectly inflated tyre can increase the risk
of accident.
- Do not drive faster than 80 km/h when the
compact temporary spare wheel is fitted -
higher speeds can cause an accident.
- Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking and
fast cornering when the temporary spare
wheel is fitted - risk of accident!
- Never use two or more compact spare tyres
at the same time - risk of accident!
- No other type of tyre (normal summer or
winter tyres) may be fitted on the compact
temporary spare wheel.
