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.

CAUTION

The vehicle must never be driven with more

than one temporary spare wheel.

The spare wheel is located in the spare wheel

well with the rim side down. There are two foam

blocks, one under the spare wheel and one

over/inside. The upper one contains all tools.

The same bolt runs through to secure the spare

wheel and the foam blocks.

Taking out the spare wheel

1. Open the floor hatch.

2. Undo the retaining bolt.

3. Lift out the foam block with tools.

4. Lift out the spare wheel.

tools to the foam block and close the floor

hatch.

tured tire in the bag.

The other two blocks can remain in the spare

wheel well.
