Fitting the "space-saver"

is secured by the conical sur face of
each bolt.

To correctly store the punctured wheel
in the boot (not in the location for the
space-saver wheel ), first remove the
central cover.
When using the "space-saver" type
spare wheel, do not exceed 50 mph
(80
km/h).
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked
