Note:The tire pressure monitoring systemindicator light illuminates when the sparetire is in use. To restore the full functionalityof the monitoring system, all road wheelsthat come with tire pressure monitoringsensors must be mounted on the vehicle.
Dissimilar Spare Wheel and TireAssembly Information
WARNING: Failure to follow theseguidelines could result in an increasedrisk of loss of vehicle control, injury ordeath.
If you have a dissimilar spare wheel andtire, the intent of the spare wheel is fortemporary use only. This means that if youneed to use it, replace it as soon aspossible with a road wheel and tireassembly that is the same size and typeas the road tires and wheels originallyprovided by Ford.
A dissimilar spare wheel and tire assemblyis defined as a spare wheel and tireassembly that is different in brand, size orappearance from the road tires andwheels.

•Use more than one dissimilar sparewheel and tire assembly at a time.
•Use snow chains on the end of thevehicle with the dissimilar spare wheeland tire assembly.
•Engage any four-wheel drive mode.See Four-Wheel Drive Limitations(page 275).
•Engage any four-wheel drive.
Using a full-size dissimilar spare wheel andtire assembly can compromise theeffectiveness of the following:
•Handling, stability and brakingperformance.
•Comfort and noise.
•Ground clearance and parking at curbs.
•Winter weather driving capability.
•Wet weather driving capability.
•Four-wheel drive capability.
When driving with the full-size dissimilarspare wheel and tire assembly, giveadditional caution to:
