If you have a tire gauge, check the tire pressure (see "Tires and
Wheels" in chapter 8 for tire pressure
instructions.). If the pressure is lower
or higher than recommended, drive
slowly to the nearest service stationand adjust it to the recommended
pressure. Always reinstall the valve
cap after checking or adjusting tire
pressure. If the cap is not replaced,
air may leak from the tire. If you lose
a valve cap, buy another and install it
as soon as possible. After changing
tires, secure the flat tire and return
the jack and tools to their proper stor-
age locations.
Check the tire pressure as soon
as possible after installing a spare
tire. Adjust it to the recommended
pressure.If any of the equipment such as the
jack, lug nuts, studs, or other equip-ment is damaged or in poor condi-tion, do not attempt to change the
tire and call for assistance.Use of compact spare tires

properly secured to the hub.
