Spare wheel
The following instructions only apply if you
have purchased an accessory temporary
spare wheel for your vehicle. If there is no
temporary spare wheel in your vehicle, please
see page 288 for instructions on using the tire
sealing system.
The accessory temporary spare wheel is pro-
vided in a bag that must be securely strapped
in place in the trunk while the vehicle is being
driven.
The spare wheel is only intended for temporary
use. Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as
08
possible. The vehicle's handling may be
altered by the use of the spare wheel. The cor-
rect tire pressure is stated in the tire pressure
294
table on page 279 and in the tire inflation plac-
ard on the driver's side door jamb at the rear of
the driver's door opening.

Turn the handle on the spare wheel bag in
toward the rear seat. Secure the stitched strap
hooks in the loading eyelets. Secure the long
strap in one of the loading eyelets, wrap the
strap around the spare wheel and through the
lower handle. Secure the short strap on the
long strap. Secure in the other loading eyelet
and tighten.

WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the
"Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-
porary replacement for a punctured tire. It
must be replaced as soon as possible by a
standard tire. Road holding and handling
may be affected with the "Temporary
Spare" in use.
