WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
1. Remove the spare tire, jack, and wheel bolt wrench.
2. If equipped with aluminum wheels where the center cap covers the wheel bolts,
use the wheel bolt wrench to pry the center cap off carefully before raising the
vehicle.
3. Before raising the vehicle, use the wheel bolt wrench to loosen, but not remove,
the wheel bolts on the wheel with the flat tire. Turn the wheel bolts counterclock-
wise one turn while the wheel is still on the ground.
4. Place the jack underneath the lift area that is closest to the flat tire. Turn the jack
screw clockwise to firmly engage the jack saddle with the lift area of the sill
flange, centering the jack saddle inside the cutout in the sill cladding.
