CAUTION
Incorrect wheel nuts or
rluLs can cause the wheel to become
loose and even come
off. This could
lead to an accident. Be sure to use
the correct wheel nuts.
If you have
to replace them, be sure to get the
right kind.
Stop somewhere as soon as you can
and have the nuts tightened with a
torque wrench to

17. Store the flat tire as far forward in
the trunk as possible. Store the jack
and wheel wrench in their
compartment in the trunk.
Storing a jack, a tire, or other
- equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.
The compact spare
is for temporary use
only. Replace the compact spare tire
with a full-size tire as soon as
you can.
See
Compact Spare Tire later in this
section.

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
(5 000 Inn), so you can finish your trip
and have
your full-size tire repaired or
replaced where
you want. Of course, it’s
best to replace your 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 the
Index under Anti-Lock
Brake System Warning Light.
Don’t use your compact spare on some
other vehicle.
And don’t
mix your compact spare or
wheel with other wheels or tires. They
won’t fit. Keep your spare and its wheel
together.

When It’s Time for New Tires
One way to tell when it’s time for new
tires is to check the treadwear
indicators, which will appear when your
tires have only
2/32 inch (1.6 mm) or less
of tread remaining.
You need a new tire if:
You can see the indicators at three
You can see cord or fabric showing
The tread or sidewall is cracked, cut
places around
the tire.
through the tire’s rubber.
or snagged deep enough to show cord
or fabric.
The tire has a bump, bulge or split.
The tire has a puncture, cut, or other
damage that can’t be repaired well
because of the size or location of the
damage.
Buying New Tires
To find out what kind and size of tires
you need, look at the Tire-Loading
Information label. The tires installed on
your vehicle when it was new had a Tire
Performance Criteria Specification
(TPC Spec) number on each tire’s
sidewall. When you get new tires, get
ones with that same TPC Spec number.
That way, your vehicle will continue to
have tires that are designed to give
proper endurance, handling, speed
rating, traction, ride and other things
during normal service on your vehicle.
If your tires have an all-season tread
design, the TPC number will be
followed by a
“MS” (for mud and
snow). If
you ever replace your tires with those
not having a TPC Spec number, make sure they are the same size, load range,
speed rating and construction type (bias, bias-belted or radial) as your
original tires.
I CAUTION I
Mixing tires could cause you
to lose control while driving.
If you mix tires of different sizes or
types (radial and bias-belted tires)
,
the vehicle may not handle
properly, and you could have a crash. Be sure to use the same size
and type tires on all wheels. It’s all
right to drive with your compact
spare, though. It was developed for
limited use
on your vehicle.
