WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
5. Raise the vehicle just enough to remove the flat tire.
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.
6. Remove the wheel bolts and tire.
7. Mount the spare tire.
Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve stem facing outward. The vehicle could
be damaged if the spare tire is mounted incorrectly.
NOTE:
• Your vehicle may be equipped with a
compact spare tire or a limited —
use spare tire. For further information
refer to "Tires — General Informa-
tion" in "Maintaining And Caring For
Your Vehicle" in your owner' s manual
on the DVD for further information.
• For vehicles so equipped, do not at-
tempt to install a center cap or wheel
cover on the compact spare.
8. Install the wheel bolts with the threaded
end of the wheel bolt toward the
wheel. Lightly tighten the wheel bolts.
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not fully tighten the wheel bolts
until the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious
injury.
