Compact Spare Tire
Although the compact spare tire 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
Wa).
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 speeds up to
65
mph
(105
km/h)
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:
When the compact spare
is
installed, don’t 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.
Don’t use your compact spare on other vehicles.
And don’t
mix
your compact spare tire or wheel with
other wheels or tires. They won’t fit. Keep your spare
tire and its wheel together.
NOTICE:
Tire chains won’t
fit
your compact spare. Using
them can damage your vehicle and can damage
the chains too. Don’t use tire chains on your
compact spare.
