tire than the road tires originally installed
on the vehicle. This spare tire was developed
for use on this vehicle, so it is all right to
drive on it. If the vehicle has four-wheel

installed, drive only in two-wheel drive.
If the vehicle has a spare tire that does not
match the original road tires and wheels in
size and type, do not include the spare in
the tire rotation.
If equipped with a temporary use full-size
spare tire, it is indicated on the tire sidewall.
SeeTire Sidewall Labeling 0346. This spare

pressure. Repair and replace the road tire as
soon as it is convenient, and stow the spare
tire for future use.
