• The direct ion of rotation is marked by an arrow on the side of the
ti re.
• If the spare tire has to be installed in the incorrect direct ion, use
th e spare tire only temporarily since the tire will no t be able to
achieve its optimum performance character istics with regard to
aquaplaning, noise and wear.
• We recommend that you pay particular attent ion to th is fact
during wet weather and that you adjust your speed to match road
conditions.
• Replace the flat tire with a new one and have it ins talled on your
vehicle as soon as possible to restore the handling advantages of a
unidi rect ional tire.•
Notes on wheel changing
Please read the information => page 330, "New tires and replacing
tires and wheels" if you are going to use a spare t ire which is different
from the tires on your vehicle.
After you change a tire:
• Check the tire pressure on the spare immediately after installa·
tion .
• Have the wheel bolt tightening torque checked with a torque
wrench as soon as possible by your authorized Audi dealer or a qual­ ified workshop .
• With steel and alloy wheel rims, the wheel bolts are correctly
tightened at a torque of 120 ft lb (160 Nm).
• If you notice that the wheel bolts are corroded and difficult to
turn while changing a tire, they should be replaced before you check
the tightening torque.
• Replace the flat tire with a new one and have it installed on your
vehicle as soon as possible. Remount the wheel cover.
Until then, drive with extra care and at reduced speeds.
Safety first
& WARNING
• If you are going to equip your vehicle with tires or rims which
differ from those which were factory installed, then be sure to
read the information =>
page 330, "New tires and replacing tires
and wheels".
• Always make sure the damaged wheel or even a flat tire and
the jack and tool kit are properly secured in the luggage compart­
ment and are not loose in the passenger compartment.
• In an accident or sudden maneuver they could fly forward,
injuring anyone in the vehicle .
• Always store damaged wheel, jack and tools securely in the
luggage compartment. Otherwise, in an accident or sudden
maneuver they could fly forward, causing injury to passengers in
