10. Lower the jack to its fully closed position.
11. Place the deflated (flat) tire in the cargo area.Do
not stow the deflated tire in the spare tire
stowage location. Have the deflated (flat) tire
repaired or replaced as soon as possible.
12. To stow the winch cable and retainer, fit the assembled jack-handle over the winch drive nut.
Rotate the jack-handle assembly clockwise until
you hear the winch mechanism click three times.
It cannot be over tightened.
13. Stow the jack-handle and jack. Remove the wheel blocks from the vehicle and release the park brake.
14. Check the tire pressure as soon as possible. Adjust the tire pressure as required.
ROAD TIRE INSTALLATION
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. To ease the installation process for steel wheels with wheel covers, install two lug nuts on the
mounting studs which are on each side of the valve
stem. Install the lug nuts with the cone shaped end
of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug
nuts.WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle
off t h

e jack, do not tighten the lug nuts
fully until the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to
follow this warning may result in personal injury.
(fig. 176)
3. Align the valve notch in the wheel cover with the valve stem on the wheel. Install the cover by hand,
snapping the cover over the two lug nuts. Do not
use a hammer or excessive force to install the cover.

section. If in doubt about the correct tightness, have
them checked with a torque wrench by your autho-
rized dealer or service station.

Using The Mode Select Knob And Hoses
Your TIREFIT kit is equipped with the following sym-
bols to indicate the air or sealant mode.
• Selecting Air ModePush in the Mode Select Knob (5) and turn to
this position for air pump operation only. Use
the Black Air Pump Hose (7) when selecting
this mode.
• Selecting Sealant Mode Push in the Mode Select Knob (5)
and turn to this position to inject the
TIREFIT Sealant and to inflate the
tire. Use the Sealant Hose (clear
hose) (6) when selecting this mode.
• Using The Power Button Push and release the Power Button (4) once
to turn On the TIREFIT kit. Push and release
the Power Button (4) again to turn Off the
TIREFIT kit.
• Using The Deflation Button Press the Deflation Button (2) to reduce the
air pressure in the tire if it becomes over-
inflated. TIREFIT Usage Precautions
• Replace the TIREFIT Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant
Hose (6) prior to the expiration date (printed on the
bottle label) to assure optimum operation of the
system. Refer to “Sealing a Tire with TIREFIT” sec-
tion (F) “Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement”.
• The Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) are a one tire application use. After each use, always replace
these components immediately at an authorized
dealer.
• When the TIREFIT sealant is in a liquid form, clean water, and a damp cloth will remove the material
from the vehicle or tire and wheel components.
Once the sealant dries, it can easily be peeled off and
properly discarded.
• For optimum performance, make sure the valve stem on the wheel is free of debris before connecting the
TIREFIT kit.
• You can use the TIREFIT air pump to inflate bicycle tires. The kit also comes with two needles, located in
the Accessory Storage Compartment (on the bot-
tom of the air pump) for inflating sport balls, rafts, or
similar inflatable items. However, use only the Air
Pump Hose (7) and make sure the Mode Select Knob
(5) is in the Air Mode when inflating such items to

avoid injecting sealant into them. The TIREFIT Seal-
ant is only intended to seal punctures less than 6 mm
diameter in the tread of your vehicle.
• Do not lift or carry the TIREFIT kit by the hoses.
WARNING!
• Do not attempt to seal a tire on the
side of

the vehicle close to traffic . Pull
far enough off the road to avoid the danger of
being hit when using the TIREFIT kit .
• Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under
the following circumstances:
–If the puncture in the tire tread is approxi-
mately6mmorlarger.
– 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.
• Keep TIREFIT away from open flame or heat
source.
(Continued)(Continued)
• A loose TIREFIT kit thrown forward in a colli-
sion or hard stop could endanger the occupants
of the vehicle. Always stow the TIREFIT kit in the
place provided. Failure to follow these warnings
can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to
you, your passengers, and others around you.
• Take care not to allow the contents of TIREFIT
to come in contact with hair, eyes, or clothing.
TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or ab-
sorbed through the skin: It causes skin, eye, and
respiratory irritation. 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 reach of chil-
dren. If swallowed, rinse mouth immediately with
plenty of water and drink plenty of water. Do not

SEALING A TIRE WITH TIREFIT
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use TIREFIT:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’sHazard Warning flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that is near to the
ground. This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses (6) and
(7) to reach the valve stem and keep the TIREFIT kit
flat on the ground. This will provide the best posi-
tioning of the kit when injecting the sealant into the
deflated tire and running the air pump. Move the
vehicle as necessary to place the valve stem in this
position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmission) and turn Off the
ignition.
4. Set the parking brake.
(B) Setting Up To Use TIREFIT:
1. Push in the Mode Select Knob (5) and turn to the Sealant Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and then remove the cap from the fitting at the end of the hose.
3. Place the TIREFIT kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire. 4. Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw
the fitting at the end of the Sealant Hose (6) onto
the valve stem.
5. Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.
NOTE: Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or
nails) from the tire.
(C) Injecting TIREFIT Sealant Into The
Deflated Tire:
• Always start the engine before turning ON the TIREFIT kit.
NOTE: Manual transmission vehicles must have the
parking brake engaged and the shift lever in NEUTRAL.
• After pressing the Power Button (4), the sealant (white fluid) will flow from the Sealant Bottle (1)
through the Sealant Hose (6) and into the tire.
NOTE: Sealant may leak out through the puncture in
the tire.
If the sealant (white fluid) does not flow within
0 – 10 seconds through the Sealant Hose (6):
1. Press the Power Button (4) to turn Off the TIREFIT kit. Disconnect the Sealant Hose (6) from the valve
stem. Make sure the valve stem is free of debris.
Reconnect the Sealant Hose (6) to the valve stem.

FRONT FOG LAMP
NOTE:Turn the steering wheel to the right if replac-
ing the left front fog lamp or to the left if replacing the
right front fog lamp to allow for easier access to the
front of the wheel well.
1.
Remove the fasteners retaining the front lower wheel
well access panel and remove the access panel.
2. Remove the electrical connector from the fog lamp housing. (fig. 179)
3. Firmly grasp the bulb by the two side latches and squeeze them together to unlock the bulb from the
back of the front fog lamp housing. 4. Pull the bulb straight out from the keyed opening in
the housing.
5. Align the index tabs of the replacement front fog lamp bulb with the slots in the collar of the bulb
opening on the back of the front fog lamp housing.
Do not touch the new bulb with your
fingers. Oil contamination will severely
shorten bulb life. If the bulb comes in
contact with an oily surface, clean the bulb with
rubbing alcohol.
6. Insert bulb into the lamp housing until the index tabs are engaged in the slots of the collar.
7. Firmly and evenly push the bulb straight into the lamp housing until both side latches lock firmly into
place.
