TOOL STORAGE
Replace all jacking tools as they were stored in the jack
storage compartment and replace the compartment
cover. To replace the cover, line up the tabs on the right
of the cover with the slots in the cover opening. Push the
cover in place and push down the tab so that it rests in
the groove. This secures the cover in place.
Unless you have the plastic "bolt-on" wheel covers, be
sure to also store the center cap. When you replace the
compact spare with a full-size tire, replace the bolt-on
wheel covers and the center cap. Tighten them "hand
tight" over the wheel nuts, using the folding wrench.
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 E a ) .
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
km/h)
for distances up to 3,000 miles (5 000
h ) ,
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.
