Spare wheel
Yo ur vehicle is equip ped with a spare wheel
(deflated full size spare tire) and an accom­
panying compressor.
The deflated full size spare tire and com­
pressor are located beneath the floor of the
luggage compartment. The spare wheel is
held down by a knurled bolt.
On vehicle' s equipped with a childr en's
bench seat, the seat must be folded back to
allow the spare wheel to be removed -see
page 94.
"Changine a wheel" and "Inflating the de­
flated full size spare tire" -see page 267.
266 The
following points must be ob­
served when the deflated full size
spare tire is used:
• The deflated full size spare tire is
only designed for brief, temporary
use. Therefore, replace it with a nor­
mal wheel as soon as poss ible.
• Never drive at speeds over 50 mph
(80 km/h). Avoid jackrabbit starts, hard bra­
king and aggressive turns!
• Do not take the vehicle to automatic car
washes when the deflated full size spare
tire is installed.
• The deflated full size spare tire was de­
veloped especially for your vehicle model. It
must not be used on other models. Simi­
larly, do not use spare wheels from other ve­
hicle models on your car. •
For engineering reasons, snow chains
must not be used on the deflated full size
spare tire.
If the vehicle must be driven with snow
chains, and one of its rear tires is flat, you
will first need to install the collapsible rear ti­
re on the front axle. This is because for engi­
neering reaons snow chains can only be in­
stalled on special winter tires*1) and only
on rear wheels.
After you've installed the spare tire on the
front axle, install the snow chain on the
wheel you've removed from the front axle.
and then install this wheel on the rear axle
in place of the wheel whose tire is flat. As
soon as possible, correct the tire pressure
to the proper setting.
• Never install normal or winter tires on the
deflated full size spare tire rim.
• Never drive the vehicle with more than
one deflated full size spare tire installed.
