WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hotengine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open the
hood until the radiator has had time to co ol. Never try to open a cooling system
pressure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.
JACKING, TIRE CHANGING AND TIREFIT TIRE REPAIR
WARNING!
• Do not attempt to change or seal 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, changing the wheel or using the TIREFIT kit.
• Getting under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the jack and fall on you. You could be crushed. Never get any part of your body under a
vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get under a raised vehicle, take it to a
service center where it can be raised on a lift.
• The jack is designed to use as a tool for changing tires only. The jack should not be used to lift the vehicle for service purposes. The vehicle should be jacked on a firm,
level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
WARNING!
• The compact spare tire is for emergency use only. Installation of this compact sparetire affects vehicle handling.
• Do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h) with a compact spare tire.
• Keep the compact spare tire inflated to the cold tire inflation pressure, listed on either your tire placard or limited use spare tire and wheel assembly.
• Replace (or repair) the original tire at the first opportunity and reinstall it on your vehicle. Failure to do so could result in loss of vehicle control.
• A loose tire, jack or TIREFIT kit thrown forward in a collision or hard stop, could endanger the occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts, spare tire and
TIREFIT kit in the places provided.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

WARNING!
Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under the following circumstances:
• If the cut or puncture in the tire tread is approximately 0.24 in (6 mm) or larger.
• If the tire has any sidewall damage.
• If the tire has any damage from driving with extremely low tire pressure.
• If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat tire.
• If the wheel has any damage.
• If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or the wheel.
WARNING!
• Keep TIREFIT away from any open flames or heat sources.
• TIREFIT is not a permanent flat tire repair. Have the tire inspected and repaired or
replaced after using TIREFIT. Do not exceed 55 mph (90 km/h) until having the tire
repaired or replaced.
• Take care not to allow the contents of TIREFIT to come in contact with hair, eyes, or clothing. TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled, sw allowed, or absorbed through the skin; it
causes skin, eye, and respiratory irrit ation. Flush immediately with plenty of water
if there is any contact with eyes or skin. Change clothing as soon as possible if
there is any contact with clothing.
• TIREFIT Sealant solution contains latex. In case of allergic reaction or rash, consult a physician immediately. Keep TIREFIT out of the reach of children. If swallowed, rinse
mouth immediately with plenty of water and drink plenty of water. Do not induce
vomiting! Consult a physician immediately.
• Use the gloves provided in the Accessory Storage Compartment when operating the TIREFIT kit.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
• If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved by arocking motion. Turn your steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the
front wheels. Then, move the shift lever back and forth between REVERSE and 1st gear.
Using minimal accelerator pedal pressure to maintain the rocking motion, without
spinning the wheels, is most effective.
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with Electronic Stability Program (ESP) or Traction
Control
, turn the system off before attempting to “rock” the vehicle.
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds
may cause tire damage or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not
spin your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) when you are stuck. Do not
let anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
CAUTION!
• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by moving between 1st and REVERSE, do not spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result.
• Revving the engine or s pinning the wheels too fast ma y lead to transmission
overheating and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels above
30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no transmission shifting occurring).
EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)
• In the event of an accident, your vehicle is designed to record up to five seconds of
specific vehicle data parameters (see list below) in an event data recorder prior to the
moment of airbag deployment, or ne ar deployment (if applicable), and up to a quarter
second of either high-speed deceleration data or change in velocity during and/or
after airbag deployment or ne ar-deployment. EDR data is ONLY recorded if an airbag
deploys, or nearly deploys, and is otherwise unavailable.
NOTE:
• A near-deployment event occurs when the airbag sensor detects severe vehicle
deceleration usually indicative of a crash, but not severe enough to warrant airbag
deployment.
• Under certain circumstances, EDR data ma y not be recorded (e.g., loss of battery
power).
