TABLE OF CONTENTS

JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
Jack Location
• Your vehicle may be equipped with jackingand tire changing equipment.
• The jack, jack handle and winch handle tools are stowed behind the rear left side trim
panel in the rear cargo area. Turn the two
cover latches to release the cover.
• Remove the pouch containing the scissors jack, jack handle, and tools.
Spare Tire Removal
• The spare tire is stowed inside a protectivecover located under the center of the
vehicle between the front doors by means of
a cable winch mechanism. The “spare tire
drive” nut is located on the floor, under a
plastic cap at the front of the floor console or under front super console forward bin liner.
To Access Spare Tire Winch Drive Nut
• To access the spare tire winch drive nut and lower the spare tire, you will need to refer to oneof the following center console configurations.
Super Console
• For vehicles equipped with the Super Console, the spare tire winch assembly drive nut islocated beneath the console.
1. Pull the lower drawer out from the rear of the floor console.

2.Rotate the nut to the left until the winch mechanism stops turning freely. This will allow enough
slack in the cable to allow you to pull the spare tire out from underneath the vehicle.
3. Assemble the winch handle extensions to form the spare tire hook, and pull the spare
tire from under the vehicle.
NOTE:
If either front tire is flat it may be necessary to
jack up the vehicle to remove the compact
spare tire/cover assembly from under the
vehicle.
4. Stand the tire/cover assembly upright and remove the wheel spacer by squeezing the
winch retaining tabs together. Push the re-
tainer through the spare tire to release it
from the wheel.
Preparations For Jacking
1. Park the vehicle on a firm, level surface.Avoid ice or slippery areas.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Place the shift lever into PARK.
5. Turn OFF the ignition.
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in the vehicle
when the vehicle is being jacked.
• Block both the front and rear of the wheel diagonally opposite the jacking position.
For example, if changing the right front tire,
block the left rear wheel.

Jacking Instructions
1. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lugnuts by turning them to the left one turn
while the wheel is still on the ground.
2. There are two jack engagement locations on each side of the vehicle body. These
locations are on the sill flange of the vehicle
body.
Rear jack locations are between a pair of down-facing tabs on the sill flange of the vehicle
side body.

6. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle forincreased 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.
7. 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.
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!
• The winch mechanism is designed for use with the winch T-handle only. Use of air wrench or other power tools is not recommended and can damage the winch.
• 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.
• The compact spare tire/cover assembly must be used when the compact spare tire is
stored. Failure to use this cover could drastically reduce the life of the compact spare tire.
• The winch mechanism is designed specifically to stow a compact spare tire only. Do not attempt to use the winch to stow the full size flat tire, or any other full-size tire. Vehicle
damage may result.
