The Temporary Spare Tire
*
[RE04100(ALL)03/94]
Your vehicle has a temporary spare tire (unless you ordered the
optional full-size spare tire). This spare tire is smaller than a
regular tire and is designed for emergency use only. Use it only
when you get a flat tire and replace it as soon as you can. This
spare tire is marked with the words TEMPORARY USE ONLY
so that you can easily identify it.
*
[RE04200(ALL)01/93]
RWARNING
If you use the temporary spare tire continuously or do
not follow these precautions, the tire could fail, causing
you to lose control of the vehicle, possibly injuring
yourself or others.

[RE04300(ALL)02/95]
When you drive with the temporary spare tire, DO NOT:
*
[RE04500(ALL)02/95]
n
exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) under any circumstances
*
[RE04600(ALL)01/93]
n
load your vehicle so that it is heavier than the maximum
vehicle load rating listed on the tire decal
*
[RE04700(ALL)01/93]
n

*
[RE04800(ALL)01/93]
n
use tire chains
*
[RE04900(ALL)01/93]
n

wheel
*
[RE05000(ALL)01/93]
n
use the wheel for any other type of vehicle
*
[RE05100(ALL)01/93]

drive through an automatic car wash. Because the temporary
spare tire is smaller than a conventional tire, it reduces the
ground clearance. Your vehicle may get caught in the rails
and it could be damaged.
