Fitting a steel or "space-saver" spare
wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,
when tightening the bolts on fitting it is
normal to notice that the washers do not
come into contact with the steel or "space-
saver" spare wheel. The wheel is secured
by the conical contact of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Put the punctured wheel in the boot or,
depending on version, remove the central cover
first to store it beneath the floor in place of the
spare wheel.With a "space-saver" type spare wheel
It is recommended that you do not exceed
the maximum authorised speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h).
Visit the dealer network or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible to have the
tightness of the bolts and the pressure of
the spare wheel checked.
Have the punctured wheel checked. After
inspection, the technician will let you know
if the tyre can be repaired or if it must be
replaced.
