Important - use of temporary
compact spare tire
If your vehicle is equipped with a com-
pact spare tire, it will take up less
space than a regular-size tire.This tire
is smaller than a conventional tire and
is designed for temporary use only.
The compact spare should be inflat-
ed to 60 psi (420 kPa).
✽✽
NOTICE
Check the inflation pressure after
installing the spare tire. Adjust it to
the specified pressure, as necessary.
CAUTION
• You should drive carefully
when the temporary compact
spare is in use. The compact
spare should be replaced by
the proper conventional tire
and rim at the first opportunity.
• Do not drive a vehicle with
more than one compact spare
tire in use at the same time.
WARNING
The temporary compact spare
tire is for emergency use only.
Do not operate your vehicle on
this compact spare at speeds
over 50 mph (80 km/h).The orig-
inal tire should be repaired or
replaced as soon as is possible
to avoid failure of the spare
possibly leading to personal
injury or death.
WARNING - Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain
the wheel.This could lead to the
loss of the wheel and a collision
resulting in serious injuries.
WARNING - Inadequate
spare tire

Check the inflation pressures
as soon as possible after
installing the spare tire. Adjust
it to the specified pressure, if
necessary. Refer to “Tires and
