IF A TYRE IS
PUNCTURED
The car is provided with the “Quick tyre
repair kit Fix&Go automatic“: see the rel-
evant instructions for use in next chapter.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
As an alternative to the Fix&Go kit, the
car can be provided (upon request) with
space-saver spare wheel or standard size
spare wheel; wheel changing and correct
use of the jack and space-saver spare
wheel call for some precautions as listed
below.
Alert other drivers that the
car is stationary in compli-
ance with local regulations: hazard
warning lights, warning triangle, etc.
Any passengers on board should leave
the car, especially if it is heavily laden.
Passengers should stay away from on-
coming traffic while the wheel is be-
ing changed. If parked on a slope or
rough surface, chock the wheels with
wedges or other suitable devices to
prevent the car from rolling.
WARNING
The space-saver spare wheel
(for versions/markets, where
provided) is specific to your car, do
not use it on other models, or use the
spare 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 orange
sticker that summarises the main cau-
tions for use and limitations. The
sticker should never be removed or
covered. Never fit a wheel cap on a
space-saver spare wheel. The sticker
gives the following information in four
languages: caution! For temporary
use only! 80 km/h max! Replace by
normal wheel as soon as possible. Do
not cover this label.
