Spare Tire
This vehicle may have a spare tire. Although the spare
tire was fully inated when the vehicle was new, it can
lose air after a time. Check the ination pressure
regularly. SeeInflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-60
andLoading the Vehicle on page 4-31for information
regarding proper tire ination and loading your vehicle.
For instruction on how to remove, install or store a spare
tire, seeRemoving the Flat Tire and Installing the Spare
Tire on page 5-92andStoring a Flat or Spare Tire and
Tools on page 5-100.
After installing the spare tire on your vehicle, you should
stop as soon as possible and make sure the spare is
correctly inated. The spare tire is made to perform well
at speeds up to 70 mph (112 km/h) at the recommended
ination pressure, so you can nish your trip.
Have the damaged or at road tire repaired or replaced
as soon as you can and installed back onto your vehicle.
This way, a spare tire will be available in case you need it
again. Do not mix tires and wheels of different sizes,
because they will not t. Keep your spare tire and its
wheel together.
