sidewall.
●Use the spare tire temporarily, and only in
an emergency.
●Make sure to check the tire inflation pres-
sure of the spare tire. ( P.322)
■When using the spare tire
As the spare tire is not equipped with a tire
pressure warning valve and transmitter, low

indicated by the tire pressure warning sys-
tem. Also, if you replace the spare tire after
the tire pressure warning light comes on,
the light remains on.
