The compact spare tire saves space in
your trunk, and its lighter weight helps to
improve fuel economy and permits easier
installation in case of a flat tire.
The compact spare tire can be used many
times, if necessary. It has tread life of up
to 4800km (3000 miles) depending on
road conditions and your driving habits.
When tread wear indicators appear on the
tire, replace the tire.
See also the tire section in Chapter 7-2 for
details on the tread wear indicators and
other service information.
The compact spare tire was de-
signed especially for your Toyota.
Do not use it on any other vehicle.
Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph)
when driving with the compact
spare tire.
Avoid sudden acceleration, sud-
den deceleration, and sharp turns
with the compact spare tire.
CAUTION
!
NOTICE
Your ground clearance is reduced
when the compact spare tire is
installed so avoid driving over
obstacles and drive slowly on
rough, unpaved roads and speed
bumps. Also, do not attempt to go
through an automatic car wash as
the vehicle may get caught,
resulting in damage.
