Driving with the compact spare wheel
In this manual: Mobility
~1min read
Drive without sudden maneuvers and do not exceed a speed of 80 km/h.
The driving characteristics of the vehicle may change: it handles worse when braking, braking distance increases, and its inherent steering behaviour changes in critical conditions.
These changes are even more noticeable in combination with winter tyres.
Only one compact spare wheel may be fitted to the vehicle.
Do not use the compact spare wheel for long periods.
Switch to a standard wheel as soon as possible.◄
