If you are forced to drive with a temporary-use or emergency spare wheel, you must bear in mind...

Correct answer

The manufacturer instructions for that temporary wheel.

Follow the vehicle and wheel manufacturer instructions on pressure, maximum speed and any other applicable restrictions. A temporary spare may require a different pressure from normal tyres; a higher pressure must not be ruled out when specified. Approval does not make it suitable for permanent use. Replace it with the appropriate repaired or new wheel according to the instructions.
