In Case Of An Emergency
The compact spare should be inflated to 60 psi
• Avoid driving over obstacles. The compact spare tire
diameter is smaller than the diameter of a
conventional tire and reduces the ground clearance
approximately 25 mm (1 in.), which could result in
damage to the vehicle.
(415
kPa).
✽
NOTICE
Check the inflation pressure after installing the
spare tire. Adjust it to the specified pressure, as
necessary.
•
Do not take this vehicle through an automatic car
wash.
•
Do not use tire chains on this tire. Because of the
smaller size, a tire chain will not fit properly. This
could damage the vehicle and result in loss of the
chain.
When using a compact spare tire, observe the
following precautions:
•
Under no circumstances should you exceed 80 km/h
(50 mph); a higher speed could damage the tire.
• This tire should not be installed on the front axle if
the vehicle must be driven in snow or on ice.
•
Ensure that you drive slowly enough for the road
conditions to avoid all hazards. Any road hazard,
such as a pothole or debris, could seriously damage
the compact spare.
Any continuous road use of this tire could result in
tire failure, loss of vehicle control, and possible
personal injury.
Do not exceed the vehicle’s maximum load rating or
the load-carrying capacity shown on the sidewall of
the compact spare tire.
• Do not use the compact spare tire on any other
vehicle because this tire has been designed
especially for your vehicle.
•
The compact spare’s tread life is shorter than a
regular tire. Inspect your compact spare tire
regularly and replace worn compact spare tires with
the same size and design, mounted on the same
wheel.
