Never fit a standard tyre to a rim

to be used for the space-saver

spare wheel. Have the punctured

tyre repaired and fitted back on as

soon as possible.

No more than one space-saver

spare wheel must be used at the

same time.

Do not grease the bolt threads be-

fore fitting them, they could un-

screw themselves.

The jack must only be used to

change wheels on the vehicle with

which it is supplied or on vehicles

of the same model. All other uses,

for example raising other vehicles,

must be excluded. Under no cir-

cumstances use the jack to carry

out repairs under the vehicle.

If the jack is not used correctly,

the raised vehicle may fall.

Do not use the jack to lift weights

above that indicated on the label

attached to the jack itself.

Never start the engine while the

car is raised by the jack. If travel-

ling with a trailer, detach the

trailer before raising the car.

Snow chains cannot be fitted to

the spare wheel, consequently if a

front tyre is punctured (front drive)

and snow chains need to be fitted,

a standard wheel must be removed

from the back axle and the space-

saver spare wheel fitted in its

place. In this way there will be two

standard wheels on the front and

the snow chains can be fitted.

Incorrect fitting of the wheel hub

could result in the hub coming off

when the vehicle is travelling.

Never tamper with the inflation

valve.

Do not insert any type of tool be-

tween the rim and the tyre.

Periodically check the tyre pres-

sure including that of the spare-

saver spare wheel as per the val-

ues given in “Technical Specifica-

tions”.
