Compact Spare Tire
{
WARNING:
Driving with more than one compact spare tire at
a time could result in loss of braking and handling.
This could lead to a crash and you or others could
be injured. Use only one compact spare tire at
a time.
The compact spare tire was fully inflated when the
vehicle was new, it can lose air after a time. Check
the inflation pressure regularly. It should be 60 psi
(414 kPa).
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
intended to perform well at speeds up to 50 mph
(80 km/h), so you can finish your trip and have your
full-size tire repaired or replaced where you want.
Replace your spare with a full-size tire as soon as
you can.
