Vehicle care
The temporary spare wheel is located
in the load compartment below the
floor cover and is secured with a
screw-in retainer.
Push both levers on the floor cover
towards the handle and pull up the
cover by the handle. Hang the hook
to the upper part of the tailgate
opening.
Vehicle tools 3 173.
Remove the retainer by rotating it
anticlockwise and remove temporary
spare wheel from the spare wheel
well.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. Do not drive faster than
80 km/h. Take curves slowly. Do not
use for a long period of time.
When the temporary spare wheel is
fitted, do not take the vehicle through
an automatic vehicle wash with guide
rails. The temporary spare wheel may
get caught on the rails, causing
damage to the tyre, wheel and other
vehicle parts.
The use of tyre chains is not permitted
on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre chains 3 179.
Directional tyres
Fit directional tyres such that they roll
in the direction of travel. The rolling
direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
The following applies to tyres fitted
opposing the rolling direction:
■ Driveability may be affected. Have
the defective tyre renewed as soon
as possible and have the wheel
balanced and fitted to the vehicle.
■ Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.
■ Drive particularly carefully on wet
and snow-covered road surfaces.
9 Warning
Storing a jack, a wheel or other
equipment in the load
compartment could cause injury if
they are not fixed in place
properly. During a sudden stop or
a collision, loose equipment could
cause personal injury or damage
to the vehicle.
Always store the jack and vehicle
tools in their respective storage
compartments and secure them
properly.
Always place the damaged wheel
in the load compartment, secured
in the spare wheel well with the
screw-in retainer.
