MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
SUMMER/THREE-SEASON TIRES
• This vehicle may be equipped with wheels and tires to enhance traction in both
wet and dry conditions.
• Summer tires are not intended to be driven in snow or on ice.
• Use summer tires only in sets of four.
NOTE:
Summer tires will not contain the "all season" designation or mountain/snowflake
symbol on the sidewall of the tire.
Do not use summer tires in snow/ice conditions. You could lose control, resulting
in severe injury or death.
SPARE TIRES — IF EQUIPPED
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with Tire Service Kit instead of a spare tire, please refer to "Tire
Service Kit" in "What To Do In Emergencies" on your DVD for further information.
Because of the reduced ground clearance, do not take your vehicle through an
automatic car wash with a compact or limited-use temporary spare installed.
Damage to the vehicle may result.
Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire And Wheel — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire and wheel equivalent in look and
function to the original equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear axle of
your vehicle. This spare tire may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle. If your
vehicle has this option, refer to an authorized tire dealer for the recommended tire
rotation pattern.
Compact Spare Tire — If Equipped
The compact spare is for temporary emergency use only. You can identify if your
vehicle is equipped with a compact spare by looking at the spare tire description on
the Tire and Loading Information Placard located on the driver's side door opening
or on the sidewall of the tire. Compact spare tire descriptions begin with the letter
"T" or "S" preceding the size designation. Example: T145/80D18 103M.
T, S = Temporary Spare Tire
