Storing a Flat or Spare Tire and
Tools
{CAUTION:
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.
{CAUTION:
The underbody-mounted spare tire needs to be
stored with the valve stem pointing up. If the
spare tire is stored with the valve stem pointing
downward, its secondary latch will not work
properly and the spare tire could loosen and
suddenly fall from your vehicle. If this happened
when your vehicle was being driven, the tire might
contact a person or another vehicle, causing injury
and, of course, damage to itself as well. Be sure
the underbody-mounted spare tire is stored with its
valve stem pointing up.
Notice:An aluminum wheel with a at tire should
always be stored under the vehicle with the hoist.
However, storing it that way for an extended period
could damage the wheel. To avoid this, always stow
the wheel properly with the valve stem pointing up
and have the wheel repaired as soon as possible.

Spare Tire
This vehicle may have a spare tire. Although the spare
tire was fully inated when the vehicle was new, it can
lose air after a time. Check the ination pressure
regularly. SeeInflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-60
andLoading the Vehicle on page 4-31for information
regarding proper tire ination and loading your vehicle.
For instruction on how to remove, install or store a spare
tire, seeRemoving the Flat Tire and Installing the Spare
Tire on page 5-92andStoring a Flat or Spare Tire and
Tools on page 5-100.
After installing the spare tire on your vehicle, you should
stop as soon as possible and make sure the spare is
correctly inated. The spare tire is made to perform well
at speeds up to 70 mph (112 km/h) at the recommended
ination pressure, so you can nish your trip.
Have the damaged or at road tire repaired or replaced
as soon as you can and installed back onto your vehicle.
This way, a spare tire will be available in case you need it
again. Do not mix tires and wheels of different sizes,
because they will not t. Keep your spare tire and its
wheel together.
