2023 FORD F150 spare wheel

Follow these guidelines when using snowtires and traction devices:
•If possible, avoid fully loading yourvehicle.
•Purchase snow chains from amanufacturer that clearly labels bodyto tire dimension restrictions.
•When driving with snow chains do notexceed 30 mph (50 km/h) or themaximum speed recommended by thechain manufacturer, whichever is less.
•Drive cautiously. If you hear the snowchains rub or bang against the vehicle,stop and tighten them. If this does notwork, remove the snow chains toprevent vehicle damage.
•Remove the snow chains when theyare no longer needed. Do not use snowchains on dry roads.
•If a temporary spare wheel is mountedon your vehicle, do not use snow chainson the axle with the temporary sparewheel.
Use snow chains that fit against thesidewall of the tire to prevent the chainsfrom touching the wheel rims orsuspension. Refer to the previousillustration.
If you have any questions regarding snowchains, please contact your authorizeddealer.
USING BEAD-LOCK WHEELS -

•Always maintain your tire pressuresaccording to the tire informationplacard located on the driver’s doorB-pillar, using an accurate gauge.Remember to be prepared to re-inflateyour tires before returning to the road.If a tire filling station is not available,remember to prepare a supplementalmeans to inflate the tires, such as aportable compressor.
•Check and set the tire pressures whenthe tires are cold, and not warm fromdriving. Wait at least three hours afterparking the vehicle before checking tirepressure. Do not reduce the pressureof warm tires.
•Check your tire pressure often tomaintain it properly. Tire pressure candecrease over time and fluctuate withtemperature.
•Do not overload your vehicle.Maximum vehicle and axle weights areon the tire information placard.
•Use extra caution when operating thevehicle near its maximum load,including assuring proper tire pressureand reducing speeds.
•If you encounter an abnormally harshimpact, inspect your tires for damage.
•Inspect your tires for damage on aregular basis. Replace a damaged tireimmediately.
•We do not approve the use of snowchains on your vehicle's tires.
•Proper suspension alignment is criticalfor maximum performance andoptimal tire wear. If you notice uneventire wear, have your alignment checked.
Spare Tire and Wheel

Highway Hazards
No matter how carefully you drive,there is always the possibility thatyou could eventually have a flattire on the highway. Drive slowlyto the closest safe area out oftraffic. This could further damagethe flat tire, but your safety ismore important.
If you feel a sudden vibration orride disturbance while driving, oryou suspect your tire or vehiclehas been damaged, immediatelyreduce your speed. Drive withcaution until you can safely pulloff the road. Stop and inspect thetires for damage. If a tire isunder-inflated or damaged,deflate it, remove the wheel andreplace it with your spare tire andwheel. If you cannot detect acause, have the vehicle towed tothe nearest repair facility or tiredealer to have the vehicleinspected.
Tire and Wheel Alignment
A bad jolt from hitting a curb orpothole can cause the front endof your vehicle to becomemisaligned or cause damage toyour tires. If your vehicle seems topull to one side when you aredriving, the wheels could be out ofalignment. Have an authorizeddealer check the wheel alignmentperiodically.
Wheel misalignment in the frontor the rear can cause uneven andrapid treadwear of your tires andshould be corrected by anauthorized dealer.
INSPECTING THE WHEEL
VALVE STEMS
Check the valve stems for holes,cracks, or cuts that could permitair leakage.
TIRE ROTATION
WARNING: If the tire labelshows different tire pressures forthe front and rear tires and thevehicle has a tire pressuremonitoring system, then youneed to update the settings forthe system sensors. Alwaysperform the system resetprocedure after tire rotation. Ifyou do not reset the system, itmay not provide a low tirepressure warning whennecessary.
Rotating your tires at therecommended interval will helpyour tires wear more evenly,providing better tire performanceand longer tire life.
Note:If your tires show any unevenwear have the alignment checkedby an authorized dealer beforerotating tires.
