Spare wheel
This vehicle is equipped with a
temporary spare tyre, which has
dimensions, pressure and useful life
different from your vehicle's road
tyres (regular use).
Therefore, use it only in emergency
situations and replace it as soon as
possible, as soon as the road tyre is
repaired or replaced. It is not
recommended that the usage of the
temporary spare tyre exceeds 100 km
of distance. The usage of the
temporary spare tyre may alter the
vehicle dynamic behavior, especially
when making turns and braking.
However, it does not affect safety, if
used at speeds below 80 km/h.
If mounting a spare wheel, which is
different from the other wheels, this
wheel might be classified as a
temporary spare wheel and the
corresponding speed limits apply,
even though no label indicates this.
Seek the assistance of a workshop to
check the applicable speed limit.
