uuIf a Tire Goes Flat uChanging a Flat Tire
Handling the Unexpected
1. Place the flat tire face down in the spare tire
well.
2. Wrap the spacer cone and spare tire wing
bolt with cloth or paper, and store them in
the spare tire well.
3. Store the jack and tools in the tool case.
Place the tool case on the flat tire.
4. Lower the trunk floor lid, then close the
trunk.
If you replace a flat tire with the spare tire, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
comes on while you are driving. After driving for a few miles (kilometers), the
indicator will start blinking for a short time and then stay on. Tire Pressure
Monitor Problem /CHECK TPMS SYSTEM appears on the multi-information
display, but this is normal.
If you replace the tire with a full-size tire, the warning message on the multi-
information display and the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will go off after a few
miles (kilometers).

The system cannot monitor the pressure of the spare
tire. Manually check the spare tire pressure to be sure
that it is correct.
