as shown in the illustration.When storing the spare tire, put it in place
with the outer side of the wheel facing up

the illustration. Then secure the tire, tak-
ing care that the tire goes straight up
without catching on any other part, to pre-
vent it from moving during a collision or
sudden braking.
Check the tire from the side to see that
the tire is stored horizontally.

—Loosening wheel nuts
4. Loosen all the wheel nuts.
Always loosen the wheel nuts before rais-
ing the vehicle.
Turn the wheel nuts counterclockwise to
loosen. To get maximum leverage, fit the
wrench to the nut so that the handle is on

2 Jack handle extensions
3 Jack handle
CAUTION
Make sure they are each securely
fixed with screws.
When connecting a jack handle extension
with another extension and a jack handle
end, use a jack handle to tighten the bolts
on the joints as shown in the illustration.
When connecting the jack handle with ex-
tension, tighten the wing bolt on the jack
handle securely. Make sure the hollow
meets the bolt on any joint when you
tighten the bolts.
NOTICE
Tighten all the joints securely. Other-
wise, the extension may come off and
it may damage the paint or vehicle
body.
—Raising your vehicle
6. After making sure no one is in thevehicle, raise it high enough so that
the spare tire can be installed.
Remember you will need more ground
clearance when putting on the spare tire
than when removing the flat tire.
To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle
end into the joint of the jack (it is a loose
fit) and turn it clockwise with the handle,
making sure the handle remains firmly
fitted onto the jack handle end. As the
jack touches the vehicle and begins to lift,
doublecheck that it is properly positioned.

—Reinstalling wheel nuts
8. Reinstall all the wheel nuts fingertight.
Reinstall the wheel nuts (tapered end in-
ward) and tighten them as much as you
can by hand. Press back on the tire and
see if you can tighten them more.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts
or nuts. Doing so may lead to over-
tightening the nuts and damaging the
bolts. The nuts may loosen and the
wheels may fall off, which could
cause a serious accident. If there is
oil or grease on any bolt or nut,
clean it.
—Lowering your vehicle
9. Lower the vehicle completely and tighten the wheel nuts.
Turn the jack handle extension counter-
clockwise with handle to lower the vehicle,
making sure the handle remains firmly
fitted onto the jack handle extension.
Use only the wheel nut wrench and turn
it clockwise to tighten the nuts. Do not
use other tools or any additional leverage
other than your hands, such as a hammer,
pipe or your foot. Make sure the wrench
is securely engaged over the nut.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the
order shown. Repeat the process until all
the nuts are tight.

Check the fluid level on the dipstick. If
necessary, add automatic transmission
fluid DEXRON
I I or III.
If the vehicle has been driven around 80
km/h (50 mph) for 20 minutes (a little
more in frigid temperatures), the fluid is
hot (60 C—80 C or 140 F—175 F). You
may also check the level when the fluid
is cold (about room temperature,
10 C—30 C or 50 F—85 F) if the engine
has not been run for about five hours. Clean all dirt from outside of the reservoir
tank and look at the fluid level. If the fluid
is cold, the level should be in the ”COLD”
range. Similarly, if it is hot, the fluid level
should be in the ”HOT” range. If the level
is at the low side of either range, add
automatic transmission fluid DEXRON
II
or III to bring the level within the range.
To remove the reservoir cap, turn it coun-
terclockwise and lift up. To reinstall it,
turn it clockwise. After replacing the filler
cap, visually check the steering box case,
vane pump and hose connections for
leaks or damage.CAUTION
The reservoir tank may be hot so be
careful not to burn yourself.
NOTICE
Avoid overfilling, or the power steer-
ing could be damaged.
