Your car has a compact spare tyre
that takes up less space. Use this
spare tyre as a temporary replace-
ment only. Get your regular tyre
repaired or replaced and put it back
on your car as soon as you can.
Check the inflation pressure of the
compact spare tyre every time you
check the other tyres. It should be
inflated to:
Follow these precautions whenever
you are using the compact spare
tyre:
Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph)
under any circumstances.
This tyre gives a harsher ride and
less traction on some road sur-
faces than the regular tyre. Use
greater caution while driving on
this tyre.
Do not mount snow chains on the
compact spare.
The wheel of the compact spare
tyre is designed especially to fit
your vehicle. Do not use your
spare tyre on another vehicle
unless it is the same make and
model.
Do not use more than one
compact spare tyre at the same
time.
Turn off the VSA system (see
page
).
Driving with the compact spare
tyre may activate the VSA system.
The compact spare tyre has a
shorter tread life than a regular tyre.
Replace it when you can see the
tread wear indicator bars. The
replacement should be the same size
and design tyre, mounted on the
same wheel. The compact spare tyre
is not designed to be mounted on a
regular wheel, and the compact
wheel is not designed for mounting a
regular tyre.
The compact spare tyre is smaller
than the regular tyre. Your car’s
ground clearance reduces when
the compact spare tyre is installed.
Driving over road debris or bumps
could possibly damage the
underside of your car.
