Spare Tire: Service and Repair

NOTE
"T-type" tire for temporary use is prepared as a spare tire.

CAUTION:
^ Do not use a tire chain with the "T-type" tire. Because of the smaller tire size, a tire chain will not fit properly and will result in damage to the vehicle and the tire.
^ Do not drive at a speed greater than 80 km/h (50 MPH).
^ Drive as slowly as possible and avoid passing over bumps.

REPLACEMENT
Refer to Removal and Installation of Steel Wheel for removal/installation of "T-type" tires. Refer to Wheel; Service and Repair.

CAUTION: Replace with a conventional tire as soon as possible since the "T-type" tire is only for temporary use.

INSPECTION
1. Check tire inflation pressure.
Specification: 412 kPa (4.2 kg1cm, 60 psi)
2. Take stones, glass, nails, etc. out of the tread groove.
3. Check tires for deformation, cracks, partial wear, or wear.

CAUTION: Replace the tire with a new one.
