location, including the telephone number from which you are calling.
• Briefly describe the nature of the problem and answer a few simple questions.
• You will be given the name of the service provider and an estimated time of arrival.
If you feel you are in an “unsafe situation”, please let us know. With your consent,
we will contact local police or safety authorities.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS - Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light• If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with
the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this
light remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven
several miles (kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), we recom-
mend you drive to the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced
immediately.
• The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” starts to flash as soon as the
tires lose traction and the ESC system becomes active. If the light begins to flash
during acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as
possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions.
The light also flashes when TCS is active. To improve the vehicle's traction when
starting off in deep snow, sand or gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESC
system to Partial Off mode by momentarily pressing the ESC Off switch.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light• Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold
and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of
a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those
tires.)
• As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or
more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

Preparations For Jacking 1. Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Shift the automatic transmission into PARK, or a manual transmission into
REVERSE.
5. Turn the ignition to LOCK.
Block both the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the jacking posi-
tion. For example, if changing the right
front tire, block the left rear wheel.
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in the ve-
hicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Jacking Instructions 1. Remove the spare tire, jack and tools
from the stored location.
2. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel
lug nuts by turning them to the left
one turn while the wheel is still on the
ground.
3. Assemble the jack and jacking tools.
Connect the jack handle driver to the
extension, then to the lug wrench.

4. Operate the jack from the front or the rear of the vehicle. Place the jack under the
axle tube, as shown. Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is fully
engaged.
5.
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.
6. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.
7. Position the spare wheel/tire on the
vehicle and install the lug nuts with the
cone-shaped end toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the lug nuts clockwise.
8. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack
screw to the left, and remove the jack.
9. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push
down on the wrench while tightening
for increased leverage. Alternate nuts
until each nut has been tightened
twice. The correct wheel nut tightness
is 95 ft lbs (130 N·m). If in doubt
about the correct tightness, have
them checked with a torque wrench
by your authorized dealer or at a ser-
vice station.
10.
Remove the jack assembly and wheel
blocks.
11. Secure the tire, jack, and tools in
their proper locations.
12. Remove blocks from wheels.
