NOTICE:
When the compact spare is installed, don’t take
your vehicle through an automatic vehicle 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.

You’re Stuck: In Sand, Mud,
Ice
or
Snow
What you don’t want to do when your vehicle is stuck is
to spin your wheels too fast. The method known as
“rocking” can help you get out when you’re stuck, but
you must use caution.

If
you let your tires spin at high speed, they can
explode, and you
or
others could be injured. And,
the transmission or other parts
of
the vehicle can
overheat. That
could
cause
an
engine
compartment fire or other damage. When you’re
stuck, spin the wheels as little as possible. Don’t
spin the wheels above
35
mph
(55
km/h)
as shown
on the speedometer.
