294 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
3. Place the wrench on the jack screw and turn
clockwise until the jack head is properly
engaged in the described location. Do not
raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is
securely engaged.
4. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw
clockwise, using the swivel wrench. Raise the
vehicle only until the tire just clears the surface
and enough clearance is obtained to install the
compact spare tire. Minimum tire lift provides
maximum stability.
WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can
make the vehicle less stable. It could slip off the
jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle
only enough to remove the tire.
5. Remove the wheel lug nuts, for vehicles with
wheel covers, remove the cover from the
wheel by hand. Do not pry the wheel cover off.
Then pull the wheel off the hub.
6. Install the inflatable spare on the vehicle,
located in the rear cargo area of the vehicle.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the
jack, do not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the
vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this
warning may result in serious injury.
Mounting Inflatable Spare Tire
CAUTION!
Be sure to mount the inflatable spare tire with
the valve stem facing outward. The vehicle could
be damaged if the inflatable spare tire is
mounted incorrectly.
NOTE:
Do not install the wheel cover on the inflatable
spare tire.
7. Leave the vehicle on the jack and start
inflating the inflatable spare after the tire has
been mounted to the vehicle. Secure the
wheel to the hub by tightening the nuts with
the wrench. After inflation, once the vehicle is
lowered you will have a second opportunity to
"torque" the lug nuts page 362.

8. Inflate the tire to the prescribed pressure
60 psi (4.2 Bar) using the Portable Air
Compressor page 296 or Tire Service Kit if
Ú
equipped page 297.
Ú
9. Lower the vehicle once the inflatable Spare
has reached its pressure and the
compressor-hose has been removed from the
tire valve.
10. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on
the wrench while at the end of the handle for
increased leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a
star pattern until each nut has been tightened
twice page 362. If in doubt about the
Ú
correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by an authorized dealer or at a
service station.
11. Lower the jack to its fully-closed position.
