Tirekit; Inflation Procedure - Jeep Renegade Owner's Handbook Manual

151) The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. It must not be
used, for example, to jack other vehicle
models or objects. Never use the jack to
carry out maintenance or repairs under the
vehicle. Never position yourself under a
jacked vehicle. Should it be necessary to
work under the vehicle, contact a Jeep
Dealership. Incorrectly positioning the jack
may cause the vehicle to fall: use it only in
the positions indicated. Do not use the jack
for loads higher than the one shown on its
label.
152) The space-saver wheel cannot be
fitted with snow chains. If a front (drive) tyre
is punctured and chains are needed, use a
standard wheel from the rear axle and
install the space-saver wheel on the rear
axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front axle, it is possible to
use snow chains.
153) Incorrect hub cap assembly, if
present, may cause it to come off when the
vehicle is moving. Never tamper with the
inflation valve. Never introduce tools of any
kind between the rim and the tyre. Check
tyre and space-saver wheel pressures
regularly, complying with the values given in
the "Technical specifications" chapter.
