EXTERIOR MIRRORS
Power side view mirrors
The ignition can be in any position to adjust the power side view mirrors.
To adjust your mirrors:
1. Rotate the control clockwise to
adjust the right mirror and rotate
the control counterclockwise to
adjust the left mirror.
2. Move the control in the direction
you wish to tilt the mirror.
3. Return to the center position to
lock mirrors in place.
Memory feature (if equipped)
The power side view mirror positions are saved when doing a memory
set function and can be recalled along with the vehicle personality
features when a memory position is selected through the remote entry
transmitter, keyless entry keypad or memory switch on the driver’s door.
Refer to Memory seats and mirrors in the Seating and Safety
Restraints chapter.
Fold-away mirrors
Fold the side mirrors in carefully
before driving through a narrow
space, like an automatic car wash.
Powerfold mirrors (if equipped)
Rotate the 4–way adjustment switch
to the center position. Press the
switch down to auto fold in and
down again to auto fold back to
design position. Powerfold the side
mirrors in carefully when driving
through a narrow space, like an automatic car wash.
The mirrors may be moved inward/outward manually. If a mirror is
moved manually, it will need to be reset. To reset: with the switch in the
center position, press the switch down to fold the mirrors in and wait a
short period (eight seconds). An audible “click” will be heard indicating
re-synchronization. If the click is not heard, use the switch to fold the
mirrors out, then in, until the click is heard. After that, the mirrors will
operate to their normal positions until they are again moved manually. POWER FOLD

Location of the spare tire and tools
The spare tire and tools for your vehicle are stowed in the following
locations:
Item Location
Spare tire Under the vehicle, just forward of
the rear bumper
Jack tools and jacking instructions Under the access panel located in
the floor compartment behind the
rear seat
Removing the jack and tools

access panel on the floor behind the
3rd row seat. Unlatch and remove
the panel.
2. Remove the jack and tools
assembly tray from the
compartment by turning the
wing-nut counterclockwise to relieve
tension against the jack assembly
tray. Remove the bag from the jack
and tool assembly tray by loosening
the strap.
Note: Pay close attention to the orientation of the bag, because it will
have to be reinstalled after changing the tire.

Tire change procedure
WARNING: To help prevent the vehicle from moving when you
change a tire, be sure the parking brake is set, then block the
wheels (both front or both rear) on the opposite end of the vehicle
from the wheel being changed. If on a grade, block both opposite
wheels on the downward side of the hill.
WARNING: If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or someone else
could be seriously injured.
WARNING: On vehicles equipped with air suspension, turn off
the Air Suspension system prior to jacking, hoisting or towing
your vehicle.
WARNING: Turn off the running boards (if equipped) before
jacking or placing any object under the vehicle. Never place your
hand between the extended running board and the vehicle. A moving
running board may cause injury.

WARNING: Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the
vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull far enough off the road to
avoid the danger of being hit when operating the jack and changing the
wheel.
If your vehicle is equipped with air suspension, refer to Message center
in the Driver Controls chapter for instructions on turning the air
suspension system off.
Refer to the instruction sheet (located in the rear floor compartment
behind the 3rd row seat with the jack tray tools assembly kit) for
detailed tire change instructions.
1. Block the wheels (both front or
both rear) on the opposite end of
the vehicle from the wheel being
changed. If on a grade, block both
wheels on the downward side of the
hill.
2. Turn off the air suspension
system (if equipped - the air
suspension system is controlled
through the message center. Refer
to Air suspension system in the
Driving chapter for more information). Also, turn off the deployable
running boards (if equipped). See Message center in the Driver controls
section.
3. Obtain the spare tire and jack tools from their storage locations.
4. Use the tip of the jack handle to
remove any wheel trim. Loosen each
wheel lug nut one-half turn
counterclockwise but do not remove
them until the wheel is raised off
the ground.

5. Position the jack according to the
jack locator arrows found on the
frame and turn the jack handle and
extension tool assembly clockwise.
Note: Use the frame rail as the
jacking location point, NOT the
control arm.
6. Raise the vehicle to provide sufficient ground clearance when
installing the spare tire; approximately 1/4 inch (6 mm).
WARNING: 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). To prevent
the vehicle from moving when you change the tire, be sure that the
parking brake is set and block the wheels (both front or both rear) on
the opposite end of the vehicle from the wheel being changed. If on a
grade, block both opposite wheels on the downward side of the hill. If
the vehicle slips off the jack, someone could be seriously injured.

WARNING: Turn off the running boards (if equipped) before
jacking or placing any object under the vehicle. Never place your
hand between the extended running board and the vehicle. A moving
running board may cause injury.
• Never use the front or rear
differential as a jacking point.
WARNING: To lessen the risk of personal injury, do not put any
part of your body under the vehicle while changing a tire. Do not
start the engine when your vehicle is on the jack. The jack is only
meant for changing the tire.
7. Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench.
8. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire, making sure the valve stem is
facing outward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the wheel is snug against the
hub. Do not fully tighten the lug nuts until the wheel has been lowered.
9. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
10. Remove the jack and fully
tighten the lug nuts in the order
shown and reinstall the wheel cover.
Refer to Wheel lug nut torque
specifications later in this chapter
for the proper lug nut torque
specification.
11. Unblock the wheels.
12. Put flat tire, jack, lug wrench
and tools away. Make sure the jack
bag is properly reinstalled around the jack and tools assembly tray with
the strap securely fastened. Be sure to tighten the wing nut sufficiently
so it does not rattle when you drive.

13. Turn on the air suspension system (if equipped). Refer to Message
center in the Driver Controls chapter for instructions on turning the air
suspension system on.
Stowing the spare tire
1. Lay the tire on the ground, near the rear of the vehicle, with the valve
stem side facing up.
2. Slide the wheel partially under
the vehicle and install the retainer
through the wheel center. If
equipped, you may have to remove
the wheel center cap prior to
pushing the retainer through the
center of the wheel. To remove the
center cap, press it off with the jack
tool from the inner side of the
wheel. After doing so, pull on the
cable to align the components at the
end of the cable.
3. Assemble the jack handle and
winch extension (as shown in
illustration), then insert the winch
extension through the access hole
behind the 3rd row seat and engage the winch.
4. Turn the jack handle clockwise until the tire is raised to its stowed
position underneath the vehicle. The wrench will become harder to turn
and the spare tire winch will ratchet or slip when the tire is raised to
maximum tightness. A clicking sound will be heard from the winch
indicating that the tire is properly stowed.
5. Disassemble the jack tool and winch extension and snap them back
into the tool tray. Reinstall the jack bag properly around the jack and
tool assembly tray, making sure the strap is securely fastened. Close the
access hole with the rubber plug. Reinstall the tray into the vehicle and
secure it with the wing nut (turn clockwise until tight).
