To store a flat or spare tire and tools, do the following:
After installing the compact spare on the vehicle, stop
as soon as possible and make sure the spare tire
is correctly inflated. The compact spare is made to
perform well at speeds up to 65 mph (105 km/h)
for distances up to 3,000 miles (5 000 km), so you can
finish your trip and have the full-size tire repaired or
replaced at your convenience. Of course, it is best
to replace the spare with a full-size tire as soon as
possible. The spare tire will last longer and be in good
shape in case it is needed again.
1.
Remove the stow bolt extension rod and sleeve
from the jack.
2.
3.
Reattach the wheel wrench to the jack.
Screw the stow bolt extension rod and the sleeve
into the existing spare tire hold-down bolt.
4.
Place the flat tire face down into the spare tire hub.
Avoid scraping the aluminum wheel, if equipped, on
the hold-down bolt.
5.
6.
Place the jack into the center of the flat tire, being
careful not to scratch the inside of the wheel.
Place the smaller jack hold-down nut in a safe
place for use when you put the compact spare
tire back into the trunk.
Notice: When the compact spare is installed, do
not take your vehicle through an automatic car wash
with guide rails. The compact spare can get
caught on the rails. That can damage the tire and
wheel, and maybe other parts of your vehicle.
7.
Remove the plastic sleeve from the stow bolt
extension rod. Secure the jack and road wheel
using the larger plastic retainer.
Do not use the compact spare on other vehicles.
And do not mix the compact spare tire or wheel with
other wheels or tires. They will not fit. Keep the
spare tire and its wheel together.
The compact spare tire is for temporary use only.
Replace the compact spare with a full-size tire as soon
as possible.
Notice: Tire chains will not fit your compact spare.
Using them can damage your vehicle and can
damage the chains too. Do not use tire chains on
your compact spare.
Compact Spare Tire
Although the compact spare tire was fully inflated when
the vehicle was new, it can lose air after a time.
Check the inflation pressure regularly. It should be
60
psi (420 kPa).
