‘HOLDER
Compact Spare Tire
Although the compact spare was fully
inflated when your vehicle was new,
it
can lose air after a time. Check the
inflation pressure regularly. It should be
60
psi
(420
kPa). After installing the
compact spare on your vehicle,
you
should stop as soon as possible and make
sure’ your spare tire is correctly inflated.
The compact spare is made to perform
well at posted speed limits for distances
up to
3,000
miles
(5
000
km). The
compact spare is made to go up to
3,000
miles
(5
000
km),
so
you can finish your
trip and have your full-size tire repaired
or replaced where you want. Of course,
it’s best to replace your spare with a
full-size tire as soon as you can. Your
spare will last longer and be in good
shape
in
case you need
it
again.
