Check the air pressure of the spare tyre frequently and make
sure it is ready for emergency use at any time.
Maintaining the spare wheel at the highest specified air pres-
sure will ensure that it can always be used under any conditions
(city/high-speed driving, varying load weight, etc.).
The spare wheel is stored under the rear of the body.Compact spare wheelThe compact spare tyre is designed to save space in the lug-
gage compartment and its lighter weight makes it easier to use
if a flat tyre occurs.
CAUTION
!●The pressure should be periodically checked and
maintained at the specified pressure while the tyre is
stowed.
Driving with an insufficient tyre pressure can lead to
an accident. If you have no choice but to drive with
an insufficient tyre pressure, keep your speed down
and inflate the tyre to the correct pressure as soon as
possible. (Refer to “Tyre inflation pressures” on
page 8-21.)●The compact spare wheel is for temporary use only
and should be removed as soon as the original wheel
can be repaired or replaced.●The vehicle must not be driven at speeds in excess of
80 km/h (50 mph) while using the compact spare
wheel.
●The compact spare tyre is not as good as a standard
tyre in controllability and stability. When the com-
pact spare tyre is used, avoid quick starts, sudden
braking and sharp steering.●Avoid driving through automatic vehicle washers
and over obstacles that could possibly damage the
vehicle’s undercarriage. Because the compact spare
wheel is smaller than the original wheel, the ground
clearance is slightly reduced.●The compact spare wheel is specifically designed for
your vehicle and it should not be used on any other
vehicle.
