Check tire inflation pressures –
including the space-saver spare

tire, or spare tire – regularly, at least
every two weeks and before beginning
a longer trip. Incorrect tire pressure can
otherwise lead to tire damage and acci-
dents.
Inflate the spare tire to the highest tire
inflation pressure specified for your
vehicle.
