Practical hints
Where will I find...?
In the case of a flat tire, you may tempo-
rarily use the Minispare wheel when ob-
serving the following restrictions:
ț Do not exceed a vehicle speed of
50 mph (80 km/h).
ț Drive to the nearest tire repair facility
to have the flat tire repaired or re-
placed as appropriate.
ț Do not operate vehicle with more than
one Minispare wheel mounted.

The arrow 2 on vehicle tool kit storage
well casing 4 must point in the direc-
tion of travel, otherwise you cannot
place the storage well casing
(
୴ page 337) on top and secure the
Minispare wheel with the retaining
screw (
୴ page 337).
!
To prevent damage, always disengage
trunk floor handle from upper edge of
trunk and lower trunk floor before clos-
ing the trunk lid.
Warning!
G
The dimensions of the Minispare wheel are
different from those of the road wheels. As
a result, the vehicle handling characteristics
change when driving with a Minispare wheel
mounted.
The Minispare wheel should only be used
temporarily, and should be replaced with a
regular road wheel as quickly as possible.
