JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING

WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the side

of the vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull
far enough off the road to avoid the danger
of being hit when operating the jack or
changing the wheel.
Being under a jacked-up vehicle is

dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the
jack and fall on you. You could be crushed.
Never put any part of your body under a
vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get
under a raised vehicle, take it to a service
center where it can be raised on a lift.
Never start or run the engine while the

vehicle is on a jack.
The jack is designed to be used as a tool for

changing tires only. The jack should not be
used to lift the vehicle for service purposes.
The vehicle should be jacked on a firm level
surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas.

Run Flat Tires

SRT models are equipped with "run flat" tires.
Run flat tires allow the vehicle to be driven
approximately 50 miles (80 km) at 55 mph
(88 km/h). Tire service should be obtained to
avoid prolonged run flat feature usage.
WARNING!
Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) if the "Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light" is
illuminated. Vehicle handling and braking
may be reduced. You could have a collision
and be severely or fatally injured.

Jack Location

The scissor-type jack and tire changing tools are
located in the rear cargo area, below the load
floor.
