WARNING
!
Twisted Seat Belts:Twisted seat belts can cause
injury. In a collision, the full
width of the belt isn’t available to
absorb the impact. This puts more
force on the bones beneath the
belt, which could break them or
cause other serious injury or
death. Don’ t wear twisted seat
belts.
WARNING
!
One Belt, One Passenger:Using one seat belt for more than
one person at a time is dangerous.
A seat belt used in this way can’ t
spread the impact forces properly
and the two passengers could be
crushed together and seriously
injured or even killed. Never use
one belt for more than one person
at a time.

 Temporary spare tire
Inspect the temporary spare tire at
least monthly to make sure it’ s
properly inflated and stored.
The temporary spare tire is easier to
handle because of its construction. It is
lighter and smaller than a conventional
tire and should be used only for an
emergency and only for a short
distance.
Use the temporary only until the
conventional tire is repaired, which
should be as soon as possible.
Maintain its pressure at 420 kPa (60
psi).
CAUTION
!
• Don’ t use your temporary spare
tire rim with a snow tire or a
conventional tire. Neither will
properly fit and could damage
both tire and rim.
• The temporary spare tire has a
tread life of up to 4,800 km
(3,000 miles), depending on
road conditions and driving
habits.
• When the tread wear solid-band
indicator appears, replace the
tire with the same type of
temporary spare.

Replacing a wheel
When replacing a wheel, make sure
the new one is the same as the original
factory wheel in diameter, rim width,
and offset.
Proper tire balancing provides the best
riding comfort and helps reduce tread
wear. Out-of-balance tires can cause
vibration and uneven wear, such as
cupping and flat spots.
