CAUTION
(7) Do not use tyre chains with your
compact spare wheel. Because of
the smaller tyre size, a tyre chain
will not fit properly. This could
cause damage to the wheel and
result in loss of the chain.
If a front tyre becomes flat when
using tyre chains, first replace a
rear wheel with the compact
spare wheel and then use the re-
moved rear wheel to replace the
flat front wheel so that you can
continue to use the chains.
CAUTION
(8) The compact spare tyre should
not be used on any other wheels,
nor should standard tyres, snow
tyres, wheel covers or trim rings
be used with the compact spare
wheel. If such use is attempted,
damage to these items or other
car components may occur.
(9) Upon installation of the compact
spare tyre, the overall car height
is slightly lowered as the tyre is
smaller in diameter than the stan-
dard tyre. When passing over the
projections on the road, use care
not to drive the car with the same
feeling as used in driving with the
standard tyre on.
(10) Do not install more than one com-
pact spare wheel at the same
time.
(11) When the tread wear indicator do
appear, the tyre must be replaced.
Refer to “Wheel condition” to
page 9–11.
