■ The spare tire

sidewall.
● Use the spare tire temporarily, and only in
an emergency.
● Make sure to check the tire inflation pres-
sure of the spare tire. (

■
When using the spare tire
As the spare tire is not equipped with a tire
pressure warning valve and transmitter, low
inflation pressure of the spare tire will not be
indicated by the tire pressure warning sys-
tem. Also, if you replace the spare tire after
the tire pressure warning light comes on,
the light remains on.
■ When the spare tire is equipped
The vehicle becomes lower when driving
with the spare tire compared to when driv-
ing with standard tires.
■
If you have a flat front tire on a road cov-
ered with snow or ice
Install the spare tire on one of the rear
wheels of the vehicle. Perform the following
steps and fit tire chains to the front tires:
1 Replace a rear tire with the spare tire.
2 Replace the flat front tire with the tire
removed from the rear of the vehicle.
3 Fit tire chains to the front tires.
WARNING
■ Installing the spare tire
Failure to follow these precautions could
cause the wheel bolts to loosen and the
tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious
injury.
● Never apply oil or grease to the wheel
bolts or their contact surface on the
wheel .
Doing so may cause the wheel bolts to
be tightened excessively, leading to
damage to the wheel bolts, the
threaded portion the wheel bolts install
to , or the wheel.
Also, the wheel bolts may come loose,
possibly leading to the wheel coming
off, causing a serious accident.
If oil or grease is attached to either of
these parts, remove it.
