Spare wheel, "Temporary spare"
The spare wheel
1
"Temporary Spare" should
only be used for the short time it takes to
repair or replace the normal tyre.
By law, it is only legal to use the spare wheel/
tyre temporarily in connection with damage to
a tyre. A wheel/tyre of this type should be
replaced with a normal wheel/tyre as soon as
possible.
Remember also that this tyre combined with
the normal tyres will affect driving character-
istics. The maximum speed with the "Tempo-
rary Spare" - spare wheel is therefore
80 km/h.
NOTE! Only use the car’s own genuine spare
wheel! Tyres with other dimensions may
cause damage to your car. Only one spare
wheel may be used at a time.
