CHANGING THE TIRES
If you get a flat tire while driving,
do not apply the brake heavily.
Instead, gradually decrease your
speed. Hold the steering wheel
firmly and slowly move to a safe
place on the side of the road.
The temporary spare tire
Your vehicle has a temporary spare
tire. The temporary spare tire for
your vehicle is labeled as such. It is
smaller than a regular tire and is
designed for emergency use only.
Replace this tire with a fullĆsize tire
as soon as possible.
If you use the temporary
spare tire continuously or
do not follow these precautions,
the tire could fail, causing you to
lose control of the vehicle,
possibly injuring yourself or
others.
