Tire, Temporary Spare

 WARNING: IF YOU USE THE TEMPORARY SPARE TIRE CONTINUOUSLY OR DO NOT FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS, THE TIRE COULD FAIL, CAUSING YOU TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND POSSIBLY INJURE YOURSELF OR OTHERS.

The temporary spare tire is smaller than conventional tires and designed for emergency use only. The spare tire is labeled with TEMPORARY USE ONLY. Replace temporary spare as soon as possible.

NOTE: Extended use of other than conventional spare tires on a Traction-Lok rear axle could result in a permanent reduction in effectiveness. This loss of effectiveness does not affect normal driving and should not be noticeable to the driver.

When using a temporary spare tire, observe the following precautions:

• Never drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) under any circumstances.
• Never exceed the maximum vehicle load rating listed on tire decal.
• Never tow a trailer.
• Never use tire chains on this tire.
• Never service temporary spare tire or remove it from wheel.
• Never use wheel for any other type of vehicle.
• Never drive through automatic car wash with temporary tire. Temporary spare tire is smaller than a conventional tire, which reduces ground clearance and could cause vehicle to get caught in the rails causing damage.
