•IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE,
ADJUST THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR PRESSURE
SHOWN ON THE VEHICLE PLACARD OR TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE
LABEL LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR. NOTE: AFTER INFLATION,
THE VEHICLE MAY NEED TO BE DRIVEN FOR 20 MINUTES BEFORE
THE FLASHING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF.
• Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
• Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator
to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue each time the vehicle is restarted as long as the
malfunction exists.
• When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to
ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.
NOTE:Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C)
of air temperature change. Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure
inside a garage, especially in the Winter. Example: If garage temperature is
68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature is 32°F (0°C), then the cold tire
inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi
(7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and
wheels. TPMS pressures and warning have been established for the
tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system operation or
sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is
not of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if
your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may
result.

NOTE:There are front and rear jacking locations on each side of the body.
The front locations are outlined by two triangular cutouts, the rear
locations by two rectangular cutouts.
For vehicles equipped with plastic
trim, the plastic has been cut away to
expose the jacking locations in the
body.
Do not raise the vehicle until you are
sure the jack is securely engaged.
3. Turn the jack screw to the left
until the jack can be placed under
the jacking location. Once the
jack is positioned, turn the jack
screw to the right until the jack
head is properly engaged with
the lift area closest to the wheel
to be changed.
4. Using the swivel wrench raise the
vehicle by turning the jack screw
to the right. Raise the vehicle
only until the tire just clears the
surface and enough clearance is
obtained to install the spare tire.
Minimum tire lift provides
maximum stability.
5. Remove the wheel nuts and pull
the wheel and wheel covers,
where applicable, off the hub.
Install the spare wheel and wheel
nuts with the cone shaped end of
the nuts toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the nuts.
NOTE:The wheel cover is held on the
wheel by the wheel nuts. When
reinstalling the original wheel,
properly align the wheel cover to
the valve stem, place the wheel
cover onto the wheel, then install
the wheel nuts.
6. Lower the vehicle by turning the
jack screw to the left.

Vehicles Without Wheel Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut
toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle
counterclockwise.
4. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the
end of the handle for increased leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star
pattern until each nut has been tightened twice. The correct tightness of
each lug nut is 100 ft/lbs (135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct
tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by your authorized
dealer or service station.
5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to
ensure that all lug nuts are properly seated against the wheel.
CAUTION!
• Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on locations other
than those indicated in the Jacking Instructions for this vehicle.
• Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve stem facing outward.
The vehicle could be damaged if the spare tire is mounted
incorrectly.
WARNING!
• Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip
off the jack and fall on you. You could be crushed. Never put 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.
• Never start or run the engine while the vehicle is on a jack.
• The jack is designed to be used 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.
• 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 or changing the wheel.

WARNING!(Continued)
• Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to help prevent
personal injury or damage to your vehicle:
• Alwayspark on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the
roadway as possible before raising the vehicle.
• Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set an automatic transmission in
PARK; a manual transmission in REVERSE.
• Never start or run the engine with the vehicle on a jack.
• Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Only use the jack in the positions indicated and for lifting this
vehicle during a tire change.
• If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful of motor
traffic.
• To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are securely stowed,
spares must be stowed with the valve stem facing the ground.
• Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle
less stable. It could slip off the jack and hurt someone near it.
Raise the vehicle only enough to remove the tire.
• To avoid possible personal injury, handle the wheel covers with
care to avoid contact with any sharp edges.
• A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop
could injure the occupants in the vehicle. Have the deflated (flat)
tire repaired or replaced immediately.
• To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten
the lug nuts fully until the vehicle is lowered to the ground.
Failure to follow this warning may result in personal injury.
JUMP-STARTING PROCEDURES
• If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be jump-started using a
set of jumper cables and a battery in another vehicle or by using a
portable battery booster pack. Jump-starting can be dangerous if done
improperly so please follow the procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:When using a portable battery booster pack follow the
manufacturer’s operating instructions and precautions.
