Compact Spare Tire
Although the compact spare was fully inflated when
your vehicle was new, it can lose
air
after a time. Check
the inflation pressure regularly.
It
should be
60
psi
(420
Pa). After installing the compact spare on your
vehicle, you should stop as
soon
as possible and make
sure your spare tire is correctly inflated. The compact
spare
is
made to perform well at posted speed limits for
distances up to
3,000
miles
(5
000
lun),
so
you can
finish your trip and have your full-size tire repaired
or
replaced where you want. Of course, it’s best to replace
your spare
with
a full-size tire as soon as you can. Your
spare will last longer and be in good shape in case you
need
it
again.
NOTICE:
Don’t take your compact spare 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.
Don’t use your compact spare
on
some other vehicle.
And don’t mix your compact spare or wheel with other
wheels
or
tires. They won’t fit. Keep your spare and its
wheel together.
I
NOTICE:
Tire chains won’t
fit
your compact spare. Using
them will damage your vehicle and destroy the
chains too. Don’t use tire chains on your compact
spare.
