The compact spare tire is a temporary replacement tire
made to perform at speeds up to 65 mph (105 km/h)
and for distances up to 3,000 miles (5 000 km). With the
compact spare installed, you can nish your trip and
then have the damaged or at road tire repaired
or replaced. Of course, it’s best to repair or replace the
damaged road tire as soon as you can. Your compact
spare tire will last longer and be in good shape in case
you need it again.
The compact spare may lose air after a time, so check
the ination pressure regularly. After installing the
compact spare on your vehicle, stop as soon as possible
and make sure it’s correctly inated. It should be
60 psi (420 kPa).
Don’t use your compact spare tire on other vehicles and
don’t mix your compact spare tire or wheel with other
wheels or tires, they won’t t. Keep your compact spare
and its wheel together. Don’t include the compact
spare in your tire rotation.
Notice:When the compact spare is installed, don’t
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.
