/

J x 17 H 2 with tire size
225/55 R17 97H.
The spare wheel rim is weight optimized and has a
limited service life of 12 000 miles (20 000 km) use
before a standard wheel rim must replace it.
In the case of a flat tire, you may temporarily use the
spare wheel, when observing the following restrictions:
• Do not exceed vehicle speed of 50 mph (80 km/h)
• Drive to the nearest tire repair facility to have the
flat tire repaired or replaced as appropriate.
• Do not operate vehicle with more than one spare
wheel mounted.
If the arrow on tire side wall does not point in direction
of vehicle forward movement when using the spare
wheel, observe the following restriction:
Unidirectional tires must always be mounted with arrow
on tire sidewall pointing in direction of vehicle forward
movement.
For rim and tire specifications, refer to “Technical Data”.
Warning!
The spare wheel rim is for temporary use only. Use
for over a total of 12 000 miles (20 000 km)
(aggregate of all uses) may cause wheel rim failure
leading to an accident and possible injuries.
The dimensions of the spare wheel are different
from those of the road wheels. As a result, the
vehicle handling characteristics change when
driving with a mounted spare wheel.
The spare wheel should only be used temporarily,
and replaced with a regular road wheel as quick as
possible.
