9-58 Vehicle Care
Warning
Lifting a vehicle and getting under it
to do maintenance or repairs is
dangerous without the appropriate
safety equipment and training. If a
jack is provided with the vehicle, it is
designed only for changing a flat tire.
If it is used for anything else, you or
others could be badly injured or
killed if the vehicle slips off the jack.
If a jack is provided with the vehicle,
only use it for changing a flat tire.
Caution
Make sure that the jack lift head is in
the correct position or you may
damage your vehicle. The repairs
would not be covered by your
warranty.
8. Remove all the wheel nuts.
9. Remove the flat tire.
10. Remove any rust or dirt from the
wheel bolts, mounting surfaces and
spare wheel.
11. Install the spare tire.
Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose after
time. The wheel could come off and
cause an accident. When changing a
wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel attaches to
the vehicle. In an emergency, a cloth
or a paper towel can be used;
however, use a scraper or wire brush
later to remove all rust or dirt.
12. Place the compact spare tire on the
wheel-mounting surface.
13. Reinstall the wheel nuts. Tighten
each nut by hand until the wheel is
held against the hub.
Warning
Never use oil or grease on bolts or
nuts because the nuts might come
loose. The vehicle's wheel could fall
off, causing a crash.
