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 kPa).
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 km), so you can finish
your trip and have your full
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.
