17. Lay the flat tire near the rear of the
vehicle with the valve stem down.
Slide the cable retainer through the
center of the wheel and raise the flat
tire until you hear the hoist
mechanism click twice. This means
the wheel is firmly stored against
the underside of the vehicle. When
storing the spare tire, be certain to
turn the spare
so the valve stem is
near the rear of the vehicle. This
will help you to check and maintain
tire pressure in the spare.
Push against the tire to be certain it
is stored firmly.
18. Replace all jacking tools as they were
stored in the storage compartment and
replace the compartment cover. Be
sure to also store the nylon nut caps.
When
you replace the compact spare
tire with a full-size tire, replace the
nylon nut caps over the wheel nuts.
Tighten them “hand tight” using the
folding wrench (see step
7).
Compact Spare Tire
Although the compact spare was fr .Ill!
inflatedwhen you; vehiile was new, :
can lose air after a time. Check the
jr
it
inflation pressure regularly. It should be
60 psi (420 1tPa). 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 ltm).
The compact spare
is made to go up to
3,000 miles (5 000 ltm), 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.
