If a Tire Goes Flat

Changing a Flat Tire

If a tire goes flat while driving, grasp the steering wheel firmly, and brake gradually

to reduce speed. Then, stop in a safe place. Replace the flat tire with a compact

spare tire. Go to a dealer as soon as possible to have the full-size tire repaired or

replaced.

1Changing a Flat Tire

Follow compact spare precautions:

Periodically check the tire pressure of the compact

spare. It should be set to the specified pressure.

Specified Pressure: 60 psi (420 kPa, 4.2 kgf/cm²)

1. Park the vehicle on firm, level, non-slippery surface and apply the parking brake.

2. Put the transmission into (P.

3. Turn on the hazard warning lights and turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0^*1.

When driving with the compact spare tire, keep the

vehicle speed under 50 mph (80 km/h). Replace with

a full-size tire as soon as possible.

The compact spare tire and wheel in your vehicle are

specifically for this model. Do not use them with

another vehicle. Do not use another type of compact

spare tire or wheel with your vehicle.

Do not mount tire chains on a compact spare tire.

If a chain-mounted front tire goes flat, remove one of

the full-size rear tires and replace it with the compact

spare tire. Remove the flat front tire and replace it

with the full-size tire that was removed from the rear.

Mount the tire chains on the front tire.

Do not use the jack if it doesn’t work properly. Call

your dealer or a professional towing service.

*1: Models with the smart entry system have an ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an

ignition switch.

TPMS and the Compact Spare Tire

■

If you replace a flat tire with the spare tire, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator

comes on while you are driving. After driving for a few miles (kilometers), Tire

Pressure Monitor Problem will appear on the multi-information display^*and the

indicator will start blinking for a short time and then stay on; however, this is normal

and is no cause for concern.

Calibrate the TPMS when you replace the tire with a specified regular tire.
