following the sequence shown in the
picture.
WARNING!
•Observe the tightening torque for
the bolts securing the wheels (72 ±
7 lbf·ft / 98 ± 10 Nm). This is
equivalent to a load of
approximately 44 lb (20 kg) being
placed on the handle of the wrench
supplied when extended for use.
•After refitting the standard wheel,
check the tire pressure.
WARNING!
•The spare wheel is narrower than
standard wheels and must only be
used to travel the distance required
to reach a service station, where thepunctured tire can be repaired or
replaced.
•Do not exceed a maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) when using the
compact spare wheel; when this
limit is exceeded, the stability, road
holding and braking of the vehicle
will be compromised. Avoid
accelerating to full speed, heavy
braking and fast cornering.
•The compact spare wheel must be
inflated to the recommended tire
pressure (see “Tire Inflation
Pressure” in section “Features and
Specifications”).
•For safety reasons, it is absolutely
forbidden to drive with more than
one compact spare wheel fitted on
the vehicle.
•Snow chains cannot be fitted on the
compact spare wheel.
•The spare wheel can travel a
maximum of 1,800 mi (3.000 km).
NOTE:
The used wheel may soil the mats if it
is housed in the car: protect them if
possible.To Refit the Standard Wheel with
Repaired or Replaced Tire
• Following the procedure and the
caution described above, raise the
vehicle and remove the compact
spare wheel reusing the supplied
wrench with adapter, suitably
extended.
• Fit the standard wheel with repaired
or replaced tire.
• Tighten the original bolts on the
wheel.
• Lower the vehicle and remove the
jack.
• Fully tighten the bolts, alternately
tightening diametrically opposite.
WARNING!
•Observe the tightening torque for
the bolts securing the wheels (72 ±
