Compact Spare Tire

Your vehicle has a compact spare

tire that takes up less space. Use this

spare tire as a temporary replace-

ment only. Get your regular tire
repaired or replaced and put back on

your vehicle as soon as you can.

Check the inflation pressure of the

compact spare tire every time you
check the other tires. It should be
inflated to:

60 psi (420 kPa , 4.2 kgf/cm

2

)

Follow these precautions whenever

you are using the compact spare tire:

Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h)
under any circumstances.

This tire gives a harsher ride and

less traction on some road sur-
faces than the regular tire. Use
greater caution while driving on
this tire.

Do not mount snow chains on the
compact spare.

Do not use the compact spare tire
if you are towing a trailer.

The wheel of the compact spare

tire is designed especially to fit

your vehicle. Do not use your

spare tire on another vehicle

unless it is the same make and
model.

On EX model

Turn off the Traction Control

System (see page

213

). Driving

with the compact spare tire may
activate the TCS.

The compact spare tire has a shorter

tread life than a regular tire. Replace
it when you can see the tread wear

indicator bars. The replacement

should be the same size and design

tire, mounted on the same wheel.

The compact spare tire is not

designed to be mounted on a regular

wheel, and the compact wheel is not

designed for mounting a regular tire.
