●The compact spare tire is identified by the label “TEMPORARY USE
ONLY” on the tire sidewall.
Use the compact spare tire temporarily, and only in an emergency.
●Make sure to check the tire inflatio n pressure of the compact spare tire.
(  P. 557)
■After completing the tire change
The tire pressure warning system must be reset. ( P. 442)
■When using the compact spare tire
As the compact spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning
