REPLACING A WHEEL
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The vehicle can be supplied (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) with a
normal spare wheel or with a small spare
wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and of the small spare wheel call for
some precautions as listed below.
Never apply any hub cap on
the small spare wheel. The
label contains the following indica-
tions in four languages: Warning! For
temporary use only! 80 km/h max!
Replace as soon as possible with a
standard service wheel. Never cover
this indication.
If you choose to install wheels of a
different type (with alloy rims instead
of the steel ones) you must change all
the fixing bolts with other of a suit-
able size.
