CHANGING THE TIRES
If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily.
Instead, gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly
and slowly move to a safe place on the side of the road.
Spare tire information
Your vehicle is equipped with a spare tire that may be used as a spare or
a regular tire. The spare tire wheel may not match the road wheel, and is
not equipped with wheel trim. The wheel trim from the wheel/tire may
be used on the spare if the wheels match.
Roadside emergencies
137

If your vehicle is equipped with 4WD, a spare tire of a different
size than the road tires should not be used. Such a tire could
result in damage to driveline components and make the vehicle
difficult to control.
Location of the spare tire and tools
The spare tire and tools for your vehicle are stowed in the following
locations:
Tool Location
Spare tire Under the vehicle, just forward of the rear
bumper
Jack, lug nut wrench In the passenger side rear storage
compartment
Jack handle On top of the radiator support at the front of
the engine compartment
Removing the spare tire
1. If equipped with a two piece lug wrench, assemble the lug wrench as
shown in the illustration.
²To assemble, screw the parts

2. Insert the jack handle into the
rear bumper opening.

forward resistance to turning will be

3. Block the diagonally opposite
wheel.
4. Obtain the spare tire and jack
from their storage locations.
5. Use the tip of the lug wrench to
remove any wheel trim.
6. Loosen each wheel lug nut
one-half turn counterclockwise but
do not remove them until the wheel
is raised off the ground.
7. Position the jack according to the following guides and turn the jack
handle clockwise until the wheel is completely off the ground.
When one of the rear wheels is off the ground, the transmission
alone will not prevent the vehicle from moving or slipping off the
jack, even if the transmission is in P (Park) or in the reverse gear
(manual transmission). To prevent the vehicle from moving when you
change the tire, be sure that the parking brake is set and the
diagonally opposite wheel is blocked. If the vehicle slips off the jack,
someone could be seriously injured.
