COMPACT SPARE TIRE
Although the compact spare was fully inflated when your vehicle was
new, it can lose air after a time. Check the inflation pressure regularly. It
should be
60 psi (420 kPa). The compact spare is made to go up to 3,000 -
miles (5000 km), so you can finish your trip and have your full-size tire i* u
repaired or replaced where you want. Of course, it’s best to replace your I
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.
Your anti-lock brake system warning light may come on when
you are
driving with a compact spare. See “Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Light” in the Index.
Don’t use your compact spare on some other vehicle.

After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and rear inflation
pressure as shown on the Tire-Loading Information label. Make certain
that all wheel nuts are properly tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque” in the
Index.
A CAUTION:
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to which it is fastened,
can make wheel nuts become loose after a time. The wheel could
come
off and cause an accident. When you change a wheel,
remove any rust
or dirt from places where the wheel attaches to
the vehicle. In an emergency, you can use
a cloth or a paper towel
to do this; but be sure to use a scraper
or wire brush later, if you
need to, to get all the rust
or dirt off. (See “Changing a Flat Tire”
in the Index.)
