Don’t try to put the wheel cover on your compact spare
tire. It won’t fit. Store the wheel cover in the trunk until
you have the flat tire repaired or replaced.
NOTICE:
meel covers won’t fit on your compact spare. ~f
you try to put a wheel cover on your compact
spare, you could damage the cover or the spare.
After you’ve put the compact spare tire on your vehicle
you’ll need to store the flat tire
in your trunk. Use the
following procedure to secure the flat tire in the trunk.
Put the flat tire in the trunk
so the side that faces out
when
it is on the vehicle is facing down. The full-size
tire will not
fit down into the well. Place it so the front is
in the well and the rea’ is out of the well. Put
the bolt through one
of the wheel nut holes, install
the retainer over the bolt, then install the wing nut. Put
the spacer and nut next to the tire in the well. Store the
cover as far forward as possible.

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 Pa). 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), 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 spire 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.

Tire Inspection and Rotqtion
Tires should be inspected every 6,000 to 8,000 miles
(IO 000 to 13 000 km) for any signs of unusual wear. If
unusual wear is present, rotate your tires as soon as
possible and check wheel alignment. Also check for
damaged tires or wheels. See “When it’s Time for New
Tires” and ‘‘Fheel Replacement” later
in this section for
more information.
The purpose
of regular rotation isto achieve more
uniform wear for
all tires on the vehicle. The first rotation
is the most important. See “Scheduled Maintenance
Services” in the Index for scheduled rotation intervals.
I 1 I I
Don’t include the compact spare tire in your
rotation.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the
f
tire
ront and
’,
rear idlation pressures as shown. on the Tire-Loading
Information label. Make certain that
all wheeI nuts are,
properly tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque” in the
Index.
When rotating
your tires, always, use the correct rotation
pattern sho.wn here.’
