INFLATION
OF
TIR
ES
Che
ck
the
inflation pressure with a reliable gauge when
the tires are cold.
The standard pressure is shown
in
the
left table.
The snow tires should always be inflated 4 psi above
the
recommended pressures shown
on
the
tire pressure
chart.
_Check the temporary spare tire inflation pressure
at
least once a
month
and
maintain
at
60
psi.
When using
the
temporary spare, the following
precau-
tions must be observed:
• Use
for limited mileage, temporary emergency use
only.
This
tire
is identified by
the
distinctive wording
"TEMPORA
RY
USE ONLY"
molded
into
the
side
wall.
Any continuous road use
of
this
tire could cause
result in tire
failure, loss
of
vehicle control
and
possible
personal injury.
• Do
not
exceed
80
km/h
(50
mph)
under
any
circum-
stances.
•
Because the spare tire's diameter is
smaller than the
regular tire, the ground clearance is reduced
by
appox·
imately
25
mm
(I
in). Avoid driving over obstacles.
Also, do
not
take
the
car through an
auto
matic car
wash when
the
temporary spare
is
installed.
· Avoid
road hazards, such
as
chuck
holes
etc.
•
Because this tire has been designed
especially
for
your
ca
r,
do
not
use
it
on
any
other
vehicle.
•
Do
not
use tire chains
with
this
tire.
·
The
temporary
spare
tire has a tread life
of
up
to
3,000
km
(2,000
miles), depending
on
road
condi-
tion
s
and
your
driving habits. When the tread we
ar
solid
band
indicator appears across
the
tread, replace
with
the
same type temporary spare.
To
conse
rve
the
tire tread life,
the
temporary spare
should be returned
to
the luggage
compart
ment
as
soon
as
the
regular tire can be repaired
and
replaced.
•
Do
not
exceed
the
vehicle maximum load rating
or
load
carrying capacity moulded
into
the side wall
of
the temporary spare tire .
