Full-Size Spare Tire

fully-inflated spare tire. A spare tire
may lose air over time, so check its
inflation pressure regularly. See Tire

inflation and loading your vehicle.
For instruction on how to remove,
install or store a spare tire, see
Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare and Storing a
Flat or Spare Tire and Tools under
Tire Changing on page 10 73.
Notice: If the vehicle has
four-wheel drive and a different
size spare tire is installed, do not
drive in four-wheel drive until the
flat tire is repaired and/or
replaced. The vehicle could be
damaged and the repairs would
not be covered by the warranty.
Never use four-wheel drive when
a different size spare tire is
installed on the vehicle.
Your vehicle may have a different
size spare tire than the road tires
originally installed on your vehicle.
This spare tire was developed for
use on your vehicle, so it is all right
to drive on it. If your vehicle has
four-wheel drive and the different
size spare tire is installed, keep the
vehicle in two-wheel drive.
