Compact Spare Tire
Although the compact spare 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
Wa). 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 posted speed limits
for distances up to
3,000
miles
(5
000
km). The compact spare
is
made to
go
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:
Don’t take your compact spare 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 some other vehicle.
And don’t mix your compact spare or wheel with other wheels or tires. They
won’t fit. Keep your spare and its wheel together.
NOTICE:
Tire chains won’t fit your compact spare. Using them will
damage your vehicle and destroy the chains too. Don’t use tire
chains on your compact spare.
