w Temporary Spare Tire
w Replacing a Wheel
Inspect the temporary spare tire at least
monthly to make sure its properly
inflated and stored.
When replacing a wheel, make sure the
new one is the same as the original factory
wheel in diameter, rim width, and offset.
The temporary spare tire is easier to
handle because of its construction. It is
lighter and smaller than a conventional
tire and should be used only for an
emergency and only for a short distance.
Proper tire balancing provides the best
riding comfort and helps reduce tread
wear. Out-of-balance tires can cause
vibration and uneven wear, such as
cupping and flat spots.
Use the temporary only until the
conventional tire is repaired, which should
be as soon as possible.
WARNING
Using a Wrong-Sized Wheel:
Using a wrong-sized wheel is
dangerous. Braking and handling
could be affected, leading to loss of
control and an accident. Always use
wheels of the correct size on your
vehicle.
Maintain its pressure at 420 kPa (60 psi).
CAUTION
Dont use your temporary spare tire
rim with a snow tire or a
conventional tire. Neither will
properly fit and could damage both
tire and rim.
CAUTION
The temporary spare tire has a tread
life of up to 5,000 km (3,000 miles),
depending on road conditions and
driving habits.
A wrong-sized wheel may adversely
affect
Tire fit
When the tread wear solid-band
indicator appears, replace the tire
with the same type of temporary
spare.

Rich on Aug 20, 2016. Thank you!

I am so thankful for this manual. I just bought this car for my significant other's retirement gift.
She will be as pleased to have the car as I am for having the owner's manual. Thanks again.
