WARNING ● The spare tire should be used for emergency use only. It should be replaced with the standard tire at the first opportunity to avoid possible tire or differential damage. ● Drive carefully while the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire is installed. Avoid sharp turns and abrupt braking while driving. ● Periodically check spare tire inflation pressure. Always keep the pressure of the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire at 60 psi (420 kPa, 4.2 bar). ● With the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire installed do not drive the vehicle at speeds faster than 50 MPH (80 km/h). ● When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire should be used on the rear wheels and the original tire used on the front wheels (drive wheels). Use tire chains only on the front (original) tires. ● Tire tread of the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire will wear at a faster rate than the standard tire. Replace the spare tire as soon as the tread wear indicators appear. ● Do not use the spare tire on other vehicles. ● Do not use more than one spare tire at the same time. ● Do not tow a trailer when the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire is installed. CAUTION ● Do not use tire chains on the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire. Tire chains will not fit properly and may cause damage to the vehicle. ● Because the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire is smaller than the original tire, ground clearance is reduced. To avoid damage to the vehicle, do not drive over obstacles. Also, do not drive the vehicle through an automatic car wash since it might get caught. 8-48 Maintenance and do-it-yourself

WARNING
The spare tire should be used for
emergency use only. It should be
replaced with the standard tire at the
first opportunity to avoid possible
tire or differential damage.
Drive
carefully
while
the
TEMPO-
RARY USE ONLY spare tire is in-
stalled.
Avoid
sharp
turns
and
abrupt braking while driving.
Periodically check spare tire infla-
tion pressure. Always keep the pres-
sure of the TEMPORARY USE ONLY
spare tire at 60 psi (420 kPa, 4.2 bar).
With the TEMPORARY USE ONLY
spare tire installed do not drive the
vehicle at speeds faster than 50 MPH
(80 km/h).
When driving on roads covered with
snow or ice, the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire should be used on
the rear wheels and the original tire
used
on
the
front
wheels
(drive
wheels). Use tire chains only on the
front (original) tires.
Tire tread of the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire will wear at a faster
rate than the standard tire. Replace
the spare tire as soon as the tread
wear indicators appear.
Do not use the spare tire on other
vehicles.
Do not use more than one spare tire
at the same time.
Do not tow a trailer when the TEM-
PORARY USE ONLY spare tire is
installed.
CAUTION
Do not use tire chains on the TEMPO-
RARY
USE
ONLY
spare
tire.
Tire
chains will not fit properly and may
cause damage to the vehicle.
Because
the
TEMPORARY
USE
ONLY spare tire is smaller than the
original tire, ground clearance is re-
duced. To avoid damage to the ve-
hicle, do not drive over obstacles.
Also,
do
not
drive
the
vehicle
through an automatic car wash since
it might get caught.
