Roadside emergencies
The temporary spare tire
The vehicle may have a high
pressure temporary spare tire. This
spare is smaller than a regular tire
and is designed for emergency use
only. This tire should be replaced
as soon as possible.
If you use the temporary
spare tire continuously or do
not follow these precautions, the
tire could fail, causing you to lose
control of the vehicle, possibly
injuring yourself or others.
When driving with a temporary
spare tire:
• Do not exceed the maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) and
only drive the shortest possible
distance.
• Do not exceed the permissible
gross weight of the vehicle.
• Do not install more than one
spare wheel on your vehicle at
any one time.
• Do not use snow chains on this
type of wheel.
• Do not drive through an
automatic car wash.
