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
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 “Anti-Lock Brake System Wa\
rning
Light”
in the Index.

NOTICE: -
Don’t take your compact spare through an automatic car wash
with guide rails. The compact spare can get caught on the rai\
ls.
That can damage the tire and wheel, and maybe other parts
of
your vehicle.
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.

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 tireshave
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.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading

States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration which grades tires

NOTICE:
Use tire chains only where legal and only when you must. Use
only
SAE Class “S” type chains that are the proper size for your
tires. Install them on the front tires and tighten them as tightly
as possible with the ends securely fastened. Drive slowly and
follow the chain manufacturer’s instructions.
If you can hear
the chains contacting your vehicle, stop and retighten them.
If
the contact continues, slow down until it stops. Driving too fast
with chains on will damage your vehicle.
