pressure to the specified level. The sp ecified tire pressure is on a label on
the driver side doorjamb.
If the compact spare tire
* causes the indicator to come on, change the
tire to a full-size tire.
■What to do when the indicator blinks
Have the tire inspected by a dealer as soon as possible. If the compact
