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, possibly injuring yourself or others.

When driving with the temporary spare tire do not:

• exceed 80 km/h (50 mph) under any circumstances

• load the vehicle beyond maximum vehicle load rating listed on the

Safety Compliance Label

• tow a trailer

• use tire chains

• drive through an automatic car wash, because of the vehicle’s reduced

ground clearance

• try to repair the temporary spare tire or remove it from its wheel

• use the wheel for any other type of vehicle

If the mini-spare tire is used as a replacement for a rear wheel:

• Turn off the traction control switch (if equipped).

• Turn off the air suspension switch (if equipped).

Anti-theft lug nuts (if equipped)

If your vehicle is equipped with this

feature, one of the lug nuts on each

wheel must be removed and

replaced with a special key. The key

and registration card are attached to

the lug wrench and stored with the spare tire. If you lose the key, send

the registration card to the manufacturer (not the dealer) to get a

replacement key. If the lug wrench/lug nut key assembly is lost, see your

nearest Ford or Lincoln/Mercury dealer who has access to the master set

of keys. Do not use an impact wrench with the anti-theft key.

Removing the anti-theft lug nut

1. Insert the key over the locking lug nut. Make sure you hold the key

square to the lug nut. If you hold the key at an angle, you could damage

the key and the lug nut.

2. Place the lug nut wrench over the lug nut key and apply pressure on

the key with the wrench.

3. Turn the wrench in a counterclockwise direction to remove the lug

nut.
