5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
CAUTION
nUsing the tire jack
Improper use of the tire jack may lead to death or injuries due to the vehicle sud-
denly falling off the jack.
lDo not use the tire jack for any purpose other than replacing tires or installing and
removing tire chains.
lOnly use the tire jack that comes with this vehicle for replacing a flat tire.
Do not use it on other vehicles, and do not use other tire jacks for replacing tires
on this vehicle.
lAlways check that the tire jack is securely set to the jack point.
lDo not put any part of your body under the vehicle supported by a jack.
lDo not start or run the engine while your vehicle is supported by the jack.
lDo not raise the vehicle while someone is in it.
lWhen raising the vehicle, do not put an object on or under the jack.
lDo not raise the vehicle to a height greater than that required to replace the tire.
lUse a jack stand if it is necessary to get under the vehicle.
Take particular care when lowering the vehicle to ensure that no one working on or
near the vehicle may be injured.
nReplacing a flat tire
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of death or serious injury.
lNever use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
The oil or grease can cause the wheel nuts to loosen, causing a serious accident.
Remove any oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
lHave the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 76 ft

Lubrication system
*: 5W-30 is an oil that provides optimal levels of fuel efficiency.
Oil viscosity
lThe 5W portion of the oil viscosity rating indicates the characteristic of
the oil which allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W
allow for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
lThe 30 in 5W-30 indicates the oil viscosity when the oil is at its operating
temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity may be better suited if the
vehicle is operated at high speeds, or under extreme load condition.

6-1. Specifications
nTemperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing
the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate
heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire fail-
ure.
The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car
tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory
test wheel than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades for this tire are established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
