Check the air pressure of the
compact spare tire every time you
check the other tires. It should be
inflated to:
Use the compact spare tire as a
temporary replacement only. Get
your regular tire repaired or replaced,
and put it back on your vehicle as
soon as you can.
Replace the tire when you can see
the tread wear indicator bars. The
replacement should be the same size
and design tire, mounted on the
same wheel. The spare tire is not
designed to be mounted on a regular
wheel, and the spare wheel is not
designed for mounting a regular tire.
Follow these precautions:
This tire gives a harsher ride and
less traction on some road
surfaces. Use greater caution
while driving.
Never exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
Do not mount tire chains on the
compact spare tire.
Do not use your compact spare
tire on another vehicle unless it is
the same make and model.
Do not use a compact spare tire
mounted on a front wheel; it will
damage the limited slip differential
(see page
).
On vehicles with the TPMS
system, the low tire pressure
indicator comes on and stays on
after you replace the flat tire with
the compact spare tire. After
several miles (kilometers) driving
with the compact spare tire, the
TPMS indicator comes on and the
low tire pressure indicator goes off.
