CHANGING THE TIRES

If you get a flat tire while driving:
• do not brake heavily.
• gradually decrease the vehicle’s speed.
• hold the steering wheel firmly.
• slowly move to a safe place on the side of the road.

The use of tire sealants is not recommended and may
compromise the integrity of your tires. The use of tire sealants

may also affect your tire pressure monitoring system (if equipped).

If your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system, refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (if

equipped) in the Maintenance and specifications section for
important information. If the tire pressure monitor sensor becomes
damaged, it will no longer function.

Spare tire information

The spare tire can be used as a spare or a regular tire and is identical to
the other tires on your vehicle.

If your vehicle is equipped with AWD, a spare tire of a different
size than the road tires should not be used. Such a tire could

make the vehicle difficult to control as well as result in damage to
driveline components.
