Pontiac 2005 Vibe - Manual (Page 308)

Use the following diagram as a guide for storing the
compact spare tire once you are done using it.
A. Jack
B. Wheel Wrench
C. Bolt D. Spare Tire
E. Jack Handle
F. Nut
Return the jack, jack handle, wheel wrench and compact
spare tire to the storage area. When storing the
compact spare tire, put it in place with the inner side of
the wheel facing up. The compact spare tire storage
area is designed only for the compact spare tire,
the standard tire cannot be stored there.
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 kPa).
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 50 mph
(80 km/h) for distances up to 3,000 miles (5 000 km),
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.
Notice: When the compact spare is installed, do
not take your vehicle through an automatic car wash
with guide rails. The compact spare can get
caught on the rails. That can damage the tire and
wheel, and maybe other parts of your vehicle.
Don’t use your compact spare on other vehicles.
And don’t mix your compact spare tire or wheel with
other wheels or tires. They won’t fit. Keep your spare tire
and its wheel together.
Notice: Tire chains will not fit your compact spare.
Using them can damage your vehicle and can
damage the chains too. Do not use tire chains on
your compact spare.
