P5-1917-Spare tire strap
This illustration is generic and appearance may vary.

The spare wheel is stored in a bag and should be secured with two straps onto the floor of the trunk/cargo compartment when the vehicle is being driven. The straps should be strapped down crosswise over the wheel, attached to the load anchoring eyelets and pulled taut.

Wheel changing tools are located under the cargo compartment floor.

Polestar Engineered

If your vehicle is Polestar Engineered, Temporary Spare tires will not fit on the front wheel axle due to the larger brakes.

Tires should only be moved between the front and back, never from right to left or vice versa. If one of the front tires needs to be replaced with a spare tire:
Use the spare tire to replace the rear tire on the same side of the vehicle as the flat tire.
Move the rear tire to the front to replace the flat tire.
