GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and space-saver spare wheel call for
some precautions as listed below.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing, or coasting downhill) as this could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic exhau-
st system and damage it beyond repair.
Remember that the brake booster and the
power steering system are not operating
until the engine is started, a greater effort
will therefore be required to press the
brake pedal or to turn the steering wheel.
Alert other drivers that the
car is stationary in com-
pliance with local regulations: hazard
warning lights, warning triangle etc.
Any passengers on board should lea-
ve the car, especially if it is heavily la-
den. Passengers should stay away
from oncoming traffic while the
wheel is being changed on. If the
wheel is being changed on a steep or
badly surfaced road, place the wed-
ges or other suitable material under
the wheel to stop the car.
WARNING
The space-saver spare wheel
is specific to your car, do not
use it on other models, or use the spa-
re wheel of other models on your car.
The space-saver spare wheel shall
only be used in an emergency.
It shall only be used for the distance
necessary to reach a service point and
the car speed shall not exceed 80
Km/h. The spare wheel has an oran-
ge sticker that summarises the main
cautions for use and limitations. The
sticker should never be removed or
covered.
Never fit a wheel cap on a space-sa-
ver spare wheel. The sticker gives the
following information in four langua-
ges: caution! For temporary use only!
80 km/h max! Replace by normal
wheel as soon as possible. Do not co-
ver this label.
