Air Pump
The air pump that comes with your
vehicle is designed specifically to
inflate the folding spare tire.
Follow these precautions:
Connect the air pump only to a
12 V car battery. Connecting it to
any other power source could
damage the air pump.
Applying oil to any component of
the air pump is not necessary.
The surface of the air pump will
become hot during use. Do not
touch the air pump while in use.
Continuous operation for more
than 15 minutes could damage the
air pump. Let it cool down before
using it again.
Folding Spare Tire
Use the folding spare tire as a
temporary replacement only. Get
your regular tire replaced and put it
on your vehicle as soon as you can.
Follow these precautions.
Inflate or deflate the spare tire
only when it is on the vehicle.
Inflating it on the ground may trap
stones or other foreign matter
between the tire and the wheel rim.
Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
