Roadside Emergencies
Circuit Breakers
If you need to check a circuit breaker that is on the instrument
panel fuse panel, see Checking and replacing fuses to find out how
to locate the fuse panel and pull it down.
Diagnostic equipment is needed to check circuit breakers. Refer
to the manufacturer's instructions.
Circuit breakers will reset themselves and allow the electrical
parts to work again once the overload on the circuit is gone. If
the circuit breakers continue to cut off electricity, have your
vehicle's electrical system checked.
If you replace a circuit breaker, use one with the same
amperage rating. To remove a circuit breaker mounted in the
fuse panel, grip it with your finger and thumb and pull it
straight out of its socket.

Changing a Tire

If you get a flat tire while you are driving, do not apply the
brake heavily. Instead, gradually decrease the speed. Hold the
steering wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe place on the
side of the road. Park on a level spot, turn off the ignition, set
the parking brake, and turn on the hazard flashers.
The Temporary Spare Tire
You may have a high pressure temporary spare tire. This spare
tire is smaller than a regular tire and is designed for emergency
use only. Use it only when you get a flat tire and replace it as
soon as you can. This spare tire is marked with the words
"TEMPORARY USE ONLY" so that you can easily identify it.
