WARNING

. The TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare

tire should be used for emergency
use. It should be replaced with the
standard tire at the first opportunity
to avoid possible tire or differential
damage.

. Drive carefully while the TEMPOR-

ARY 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
pressure of the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire at 60 psi (420 kPa,
4.2 bar). Always keep the pressure
of the full size spare tire (if so
equipped) at the recommended
pressure for standard tires, as in-
dicated on the Tire and Loading
Information label.

. With the TEMPORARY USE ONLY

spare tire installed do not drive your
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 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 while the

TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire
is installed.

CAUTION

. Do not use tire chains on a TEM-

PORARY 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 may get caught.
