6Stow the flat tire, tire jack and
all tools.
■The compact spare tire
●The compact spare tire is identi-
fied by the label “TEMPORARY
USE ONLY” on the tire sidewall.
Use the compact spare tire tempo-
rarily, and only in an emergency.
●Make sure to check the tire infla-
tion pressure of the compact
spare tire. ( P.671)
■When using the compact spare
tire
As the compact sp are tire is not
equipped with a tire pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitter, low infla-
tion pressur e of the spar e tire will
not be indicated by the tire pressure
warning system. Also, if you replace
the compact spare tire after the tire
pressure warning light comes on,
the light remains on.
■When the compact spare tire is
attached
The vehicle height may become
lower when driving with the compact
spare tire compared to when driving
with standard tires.
■If you have a flat front tire on a
road covered with snow or ice
Install the compact spare tire on one
of the rear wheels of the vehicle.
Perform the following steps and fit
tire chains to the front tires:
1 Replace a rear tire with the com-
pact spare tire.
2 Replace the flat front tire with the
tire removed from the rear of the
vehicle.
3 Fit tire chains to the front tires.
■When stowing the jack
Before storing the jack, adjust the
height of the jack to match the
shape of the jack holder. The storage direction of the jack dif-
fers depending on the type, so make
sure to store the ja
ck in the correct
direction.

■When using the compact
spare tire
●Remember that the compact
spare tire provided is specifi-
cally designed for use with your
vehicle. Do not use your com-
pact spare tire on another vehi-
cle.
●Do not use more than one com-
pact spare tire simultaneously.
●Replace the comp act spare tire
with a standard tire as soon as
possible.
●Avoid sudden acceleration,
abrupt steering, sudden brak-
ing and shifting operations that
cause sudden engine braking.
