WARNING Risk of accident caused by
incor rect wheel and tyre dimensions
The wheel or tyre size and the tyre type of
th e emer gency spa rewheel or spare wheel
and the wheel tobe replaced may dif fer.
Mounting an emer gency spa rewheel/spare
wheel may se verely impair the driving char‐
acteristics.
To preve nt hazardous situations: 0007
Adapt your driving style according lyand
drive carefull y. 0007
Neverfit more than one emer gency
spa rewheel or spare wheel that dif fers
in size. 0007
Only use an emer gency spa rewheel or
spare wheel of a dif fere nt size brie fly. 0007
Do not switch off ESP ®
. 0007
Have the emer gency spa rewheel or
spare wheel of a dif fere nt size replaced
at the nearest qualified specialist work‐ shop. The new wheel must ha
vethe
cor rect dimensions. Check
the tyre pressure of the emer gency spa re
wheel fitted. Co rrect the pressure as necessar y.
The maximum permissible speed with an emer‐
ge ncy spa rewheel fitted is 80 km/h.
Do not fit th e emer gency spa rewheel with sn ow
ch ains.
Re place the emer gency spa rewheel af ter six
