CHANGING A WHEEL
Warning!
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.
Being under a jacked-up vehicle is
dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the
jack and fall on you. You could be crushed.
Never put any part of your body under a
vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get
under a raised vehicle, take it to a service
center where it can be raised on a lift.
The jack is designed to be used as a
tool for changing tires only. The jack should
not be used to lift the vehicle for service
purposes. The vehicle should be jacked on
a firm level surface only. Avoid ice or
slippery areas.
Tools Location
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
spare tire, jack, lug wrench, and tow
eyes. For details, contact an authorized
dealer.
Tools are stored in the trunk.

Warning!
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 being hit
when operating the jack or changing the
wheel.
Proceed as follows:
1. Stop the vehicle in a position that
does not cause any danger to traffic
and lets you change the tire in safety, as
far as possible from the edge of the
driving lane. The ground must be flat
and sufficiently compact.
2. Turn on the hazard warning lights
and engage the parking brake. 3. For vehicles with automatic
transmission, place the gear selector in

kept off as long as the vehicle is lifted
off the ground.
5. Remove the jack and tools.
6. Block both the front and rear of the
wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking
position. For example, if changing the
right front tire, block the left rear wheel.

Removing A Tire
Warning!
Carefully follow these tire changing
warnings to help prevent personal injury or
damage to your vehicle:
Always park on a firm, level surface as
far from the edge of the roadway as
possible before raising the vehicle.
Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
Block the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be raised.
Set the parking brake firmly and set the
transmission in PARK.
Do not let any passenger sit in the
vehicle when it is on a jack.
Do not get under the vehicle when it is
on a jack. If you need to get under a raised
vehicle, take it to a service center where it
can be raised on a lift.
Only use the jack in the positions
indicated and for lifting this vehicle during a
tire change.
If working on or near a roadway, be
extremely careful of motor traffic.
Proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the lug nuts by turning them
counterclockwise one turn each, but do
not remove any lug nuts until the tire
has been raised off the ground. 2. Place the jack under the lift point
closest to the tire being changed with
the jack head squarely under the
jack-up point.
3. Turn the jack screw in the direction
shown and adjust the jack head so that
it is close to the jack-up position.
4. Continue raising the jack head
gradually by rotating the screw with
your hand until the jack head is inserted
into the lift point.
Caution!
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by
jacking on locations other than those
indicated in the Jacking Instructions for this
vehicle.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

5. Insert the jack lever and attach the
lug wrench to tire jack.
Warning!
Being under a jacked-up vehicle is
dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the
jack and fall on you. You could be crushed.
Never get any part of your body under a
vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get
under a raised vehicle, take it to a service
center where it can be raised on a lift.
6. Turn the jack handle clockwise and
raise the vehicle high enough so that
the tire is raised off the ground and can
be removed. Before removing the lug
nuts, make sure your vehicle is firmly in
position and that it cannot slip or move.
Warning!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary
can make the vehicle less stable. It could
slip off the jack and hurt someone near it.
Raise the vehicle only enough to remove
the tire.
7. Remove the wheel nuts by turning
them counterclockwise; then remove
the wheel.Locking Lug Nuts — If Equipped
If your vehicle has optional antitheft
wheel lug nuts, one on each wheel will
lock the tires and you must use a
special key to unlock them. This key will
attach to the lug wrench.
Register them with the lock
manufacturer by filling out the card
provided in the glove compartment and
mailing it in the accompanying
envelope. If you lose this key, contact
an authorized dealer or use the lock
manufacturer's order form, which is
with the registration card.
Accessory wheel locks cannot be used
on steel wheels. This includes situations
when the spare tire is installed. If the
spare tire is installed, one of the original
lug nuts (which should still be in the
vehicle) must be installed in place of the
wheel lock.
To Remove An Antitheft Lug Nut
Proceed as follows:
1. Obtain the special key for the
antitheft lug nut.
2. Place the special key on top of the
antitheft lug nut, and be sure to hold
the key square to it. If you hold the key
at an angle, you may damage both key
and nut. Do not use a power impact
wrench.
3. Place the lug wrench on top of the
key and apply pressure. Turn the
wrench counterclockwise.
