Practical hints

Where will I find...?

In case of a flat tire, you may temporarily
use the Minispare wheel when observing
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
replaced as appropriate.

ț

Do not operate vehicle with more than

Spare wheel bolts

The spare wheel bolts are fixed at the
Minispare wheel.

1 Wheel bolt for light alloy rims
2 Wheel bolt for Minispare wheel

(located in trunk with spare wheel)

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.

Do not switch off the ESP

®

when a Minis-

pare wheel is mounted.

!

Wheel bolts

2 must be used when mount-

ing the Minispare wheel. The use of any wheel
bolts other than wheel bolts

2 for the Minispare

wheel will physically damage the vehicle’s
brakes.

Warning!

G

Make sure to use the original length wheel

bolts when remounting the original wheel

after it has been repaired.
