Jump-Starting - Dodge Ram 2010 Truck User Manual

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
• Install the wheel center cap and remove the wheel blocks. Do not install chrome or
aluminum wheel center caps on the spare wheel. This may result in cap damage.
A loose tire or jack, thrown forward in a collision or hard stop, could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the places
provided.
• Secure the tire, jack, and tools in their proper locations.
• Position the wheel so that the valve stem is facing the ground. Slide the wheel retainer
through the center of the wheel and position it properly across the wheel opening.
NOTE: Aluminum wheels cannot be stored under the vehicle because the wheel retainer
will not fit through the wheel pilot hole. Secure the flat tire in the bed of the truck. Have
the flat tire repaired or replaced immediately.
