Compact Spare Tire
Although the compact spare tire was fully inflated when
your vehicle was new, it can lose air after a time. Check
the inflation pressure regularly. It should be 60 psi
(420 Wa).
After installing the compact spare on your vehicle, you
should stop as soon as possible and make sure your spare
tire is correctly inflated. The compact spare is made to
perform well at speeds up to
65
mph (105 h / h ) for
distances up
to 3,000
miles (5 000
k m ) ,
so you can finish
your trip and have your full-size tire repaired or replaced
where you want. Of course, it's best to replace your
spare with a full-size tire as soon as you can. Your spare
will last longer
and be
in
good shape in
case
you need
it
again.
NOTICE:
When the compact spare is installed, don't take
your vehicle through an automatic car wash with
guide rails. The compact spare can get caught on
the rails. That can damage the tire and wheel,
and maybe other parts of your vehicle.
Don't use your compact spare on other vehicles.
And don't mix your compact spare tire or wheel with
other wheels or tires. They won't fit. Keep your spare
tire and its wheel together.
NOTICE:
Tire chains won't
fit
your compact spare. Using
them can damage your vehicle and can damage
the chains too. Don't
use
tire chains on your
compact spare.
