• If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehicle, particularly around the
wheels or wheel housings.

■The compact spare tire (if equipped)
● 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 inflation pressure of the compact spare tire.
( P. 772)
■ When using the compact spare tire (if equipped)
As the spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitter, low inflation pressure of the spare tire will not be indicated by the tire
pressure warning system. Also, if you repl ace the spare tire after the tire pres-
sure warning light comes on, the light remains on.
■ When the compact spare tire is equipped (if equipped)
The vehicle becomes lower when driving with the compact spare tire com-
pared to when driving with standard tires.
■ If you have a flat front tire on a road covered with snow or ice (vehicles
with a compact spare tire)
Install the compact spare tire on one of the rear wheels of the vehicle. Per-
form the following steps and fit tire chains to the front tires:
Replace a rear tire with the compact spare tire.
Replace the flat front tire with the tire removed from the rear of the vehicle.
Fit tire chains to the front tires.
