WARNING!
Limited use spares are for emergency use only. Installation of this limited use spare tire affects
vehicle handling. With this tire, do not drive more than the speed listed on the limit use spare
wheel. Keep inflated to the cold tire inflation pressures listed on your Tire and Loading
Information Placard located on the driver’s side B-Pillar or the rear edge of the driver’s side door.
Replace (or repair) the original equipment tire at the first opportunity and reinstall it on your
vehicle. Failure to do so could result in loss of vehicle control.
Wheel And Wheel Trim Care
All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels, should be cleaned
regularly using mild (neutral Ph) soap and water to maintain their luster and to prevent corrosion.
Wash wheels with the same soap solution recommended for the body of the vehicle.
Your wheels are susceptible to deterioration caused by salt, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride,
calcium chloride, etc., and other road chemicals used to melt ice or control dust on dirt roads. Use
a soft cloth or sponge and mild soap to wipe away promptly. Do not use harsh chemicals or a stiff
brush. They can damage the wheel’s protective coating that helps keep them from corroding and
tarnishing.
NOTE:
Many aftermarket wheel cleaners contain strong acids or strong alkaline additives that can harm
the wheel surface.
CAUTION!
Avoid products or automatic car washes that use acidic solutions or strong alkaline additives or
harsh brushes. These products and automatic car washes may damage the wheel's protective
finish. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Only car wash soap,
MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.
When cleaning extremely dirty wheels including excessive brake dust, care must be taken in the
selection of tire and wheel cleaning chemicals and equipment to prevent damage to the wheels.
Mopar Wheel Treatment, Mopar Chrome Cleaner, or their equivalent is recommended or select a
non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner for aluminum or chrome wheels. Do not use any products on Dark
Vapor or Black Satin Chrome Wheels. They will permanently damage this finish and such damage
is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, metal polishes or oven cleaner. These
products may damage the wheel's protective finish. Such damage is not covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. Only car wash soap, MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recom-
mended.
