tire    should   be    repaired    or
replaced as soon as is possible
to  avoid   failure  of   the  spare
possibly   leading   to  personal
injury or death.
Under   no  circumstances   should
you  exceed 50  mph  (80 km/h);  a
higher  speed  could   damage  the

seriously   damage   the   compact

is   not    recommended    with
more than one compact  spare
tire in use at the same time.
