Improper use of the tire jack may cause the vehicle to suddenly fall off the
jack, leading to death or serious injury.

ing tires on this vehicle.

ing and removing tire chains.
● Do not put any part of your body under the vehicle while it is supported by

When trouble arises
■The compact spare tire (if equipped)
● The compact spare tire is identified by the label “TEMPORARY USE ONLY”
on the tire sidewall.
Use the compact spare tire temporarily, and only in an emergency.
● Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure of the compact spare tire.
( P. 665)
■ When using the compact spare tire (vehicles with the tire pressure warn-
ing system)
As the compact spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter, low inflation pressure of the spare tire will not be indicated by
the tire pressure warning system. Also, if you replace the compact spare tire
after the tire pressure warning light comes on, the light remains on.
■ When the compact spare tire is equipped (if equipped)
The vehicle height may become lower when driving with the compact spare
tire compared to when driving with standard tires.
■ If you have a flat front tire on a road covered with snow or ice (vehicles
with compact spare tire)
Install the compact spare tire on one of the rear wheels of the vehicle. Per-
form the following steps and fit tire chains to the front tires:
Replace a rear tire with the compact spare tire.
Replace the flat front tire with the tire removed from the rear of the vehicle.
Fit tire chains to the front tires.
■ Jack point
■ Storing the jack
The mark indicating the jack point is
stamped on the underside of the vehicle.
Place the jack in the same direction as the
mark next to the storage space.
