CAUTION
l The temporary spare wheel is to be used on-
ly temporarily when the standard wheel is
damaged. Repair the damaged tyre as soon
as possible and use it to replace the tempora-
ry spare tyre.
l After changing the tyre and driving the vehi-
cle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retighten the
wheel nuts to make sure that they have not
come loose.
l
If the steering wheel vibrates when driving
after changing the tyre, we recommend you
to have the tyres checked for balance.
l Do not mix one type of tyre with another or
use a different size from the one listed. This
would cause early wear and poor handling.

der the luggage floor board. To store the

mal size tyre.
