For emergencies
CAUTION
l
The tyre pressure should be periodically
checked and maintained at the specified
pressure while the tyre is stowed.
l
The compact spare tyre is to be used only
temporarily when the standard tyre is
damaged. Repair the damaged tyre as
soon as possible and use it to replace the
compact spare tyre.
l
After changing the tyre and driving the ve-
hicle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retight-
en the wheel nuts to make sure that they

have not come loose.
l
If the steering wheel vibrates when driv-
ing after changing the tyre, we recom-
mend you to have the tyres checked for
balance.
l
Do not mix one type of tyre with another
or use a different size from the one listed.
This would cause early wear and poor han-
dling.
