WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
• The jack and spare tire or TIREFIT kit are stowed under an access cover in the
trunk.
• Lift the access cover using the pull strap and remove the fastener securing the
spare tire.
• After removing the spare tire, remove the fastener securing the jack.
Preparations For Jacking Or TIREFIT Tire Repair
• Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
• Set the parking brake and shift the transmission into PARK.
• Turn the ignition to LOCK and turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
Jacking And Tire Changing Instructions
Carefully follow these tire changing procedures to help prevent personal injury or
damage to your vehicle: Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge
of the roadway as possible before raising the vehicle.
• Remove the spare tire, jack and lug wrench.
• If equipped with steel wheels, do not remove the wheel cover at this time. If
equipped with aluminum wheels where the center cap covers the lug nuts, use the
lug wrench to pry the center cap off carefully before raising the vehicle.
• Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug nuts by turning them to the left one turn
while the wheel is still on the ground.
• Assemble the jack and jacking tools. Connect the jack handle driver to the
extension, then to the lug wrench.
• Block both the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the jacking position.
For example, if changing the right front
tire, block the left rear wheel.
NOTE: Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
