Roadside Emergencies
Removing the spare tire and jack
1. Lift the carpeted load floor panel
located in the rear of the vehicle.
2. Remove the wing nut securing
the spare tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
3. Lift and remove the spare tire.
4. Remove the spacer and bag
containing the jack assembly.
5. Remove the jack and wrench
from the bag. Fold down the wrench
socket to use to loosen the lug nuts
and operate the jack.
Tire change procedure
When one of the front wheels is off the ground, the transaxle
alone will not prevent the vehicle from moving or slipping off the
jack, even if the vehicle is in P (Park).
To help prevent the vehicle from moving when you change a tire,
be sure to place the transaxle in P (Park), set the parking brake
and block (in both directions) the wheel that is diagonally opposite
(other side and end of the vehicle) to the tire being changed.
If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or someone else could be
seriously injured.
