replacement. Normal electrical accessory
operation should resume after your vehicle
is left undisturbed for 8 hours. Note:

from the headlamp assembly.

far as possible toward the front of the
vehicle to disengage it from the lower
fixing point.

Lamp Assembly Condensation
The vents in the exterior lamps allow for
normal changes in pressure. Condensation
can be a natural by-product of this design.
When moist air enters the lamp assembly
through the vents, there is a possibility that
condensation can occur when the
temperature is cold. When normal
condensation occurs, a thin film of mist can
form on the interior of the lens. The thin mist
eventually clears and exits through the vents
during normal operation. Clearing time may
take as long as 48 hours under dry weather
conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
•
Presence of thin mist (no streaks, drip
marks or droplets).
• Fine mist covers less than 50% of the
lens.
293
MKC (TME), enUSA MaintenanceE171165 E171166

Examples of unacceptable moisture (usually
caused by a lamp water leak) are:
•
Water puddle inside the lamp.
• Large water droplets, drip marks or
streaks present on the interior of the lens.
Take your vehicle to a dealer for service if
any of the above conditions of unacceptable
moisture are present.
Replacing High Intensity Discharge
Headlamp Bulbs (If Equipped)
The headlamps on your vehicle use a high
intensity discharge source. These lamps
operate at a high voltage. When the bulb
burns out, have the bulb and starter capsule
assembly replaced by your authorized
dealer. Replacing Front Indicator Bulbs 1. Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise
and remove it from the headlamp
assembly.
2. Gently pull the bulb straight out of the socket.
Install the new bulb in reverse order.
Replacing Signal Indicator Mirror Bulbs
Your vehicle uses a LED for the signal
indicator mirror lamps. If replacement is
required, see your authorized dealer. Replacing Approach Lamp Bulbs
Your vehicle uses a LED for the approach
lamps. If replacement is required, see your
authorized dealer.
Replacing Tail, Brake and Direction
Indicator Bulbs
Your vehicle uses a LED for the tail, brake
and direction indicator lamps. If replacement
is required, see your authorized dealer.
Replacing Reverse Lamp Assembly
Your vehicle uses a LED for the reverse
lamps. If replacement is required, see your
authorized dealer.

Tire Change Procedure WARNINGS
When one of the front wheels is off the
ground, the transmission alone will not
prevent your vehicle from moving or slipping
off the jack, even if your vehicle is in park
(P). WARNINGS
To help prevent your vehicle from
moving when you change a tire, be
sure the parking brake is set, then block (in
both directions) the wheel that is diagonally
opposite (other side and end of your vehicle)
to the tire being changed. If your vehicle slips off the jack, you or
someone else could be seriously
injured. 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. To lessen the risk of personal injury,
do not put any part of your body under
your vehicle while changing a tire. Do not
start the engine when your vehicle is on the
jack. The jack is only meant for changing the
tire. Note:
Passengers should not remain in your
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked. 1. Park on a level surface, set the parking
brake and activate the hazard flashers.
2. Place the transmission in park (P) and
turn the engine off.
3. Remove the carpeted wheel cover.
4. Remove the wing nut that secures the spare tire by turning it counterclockwise. 5. Remove the jack from the foam holder.
The lug wrench is located in the left side
storage foam next to the spare tire.
Remove the flat tire retainer strap from
the jack base.

6. Block the diagonally opposite wheel.
7.
Loosen each wheel lug nut one-half turn
counterclockwise, but do not remove
them until the wheel is raised off the
ground.
Note: Jack at the specified locations to avoid
damage to the vehicle.
8. The vehicle jacking points are shown here, and are depicted on the yellow
warning label on the jack. 9. Small arrow-shaped marks on the sills
show the location of the jacking points. 10. Remove the lug nuts with the lug
wrench. Note:
If equipped with full wheel covers with
exposed wheel nuts, remove the wheel nuts
prior to removing the wheel cover or damage
to the wheel cover may occur.
11. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing
outward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the
wheel is snug against the hub. Do not
fully tighten the lug nuts until the wheel
has been lowered.
12. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise. 331
