Handling the Unexpected
1. Remove the center cap.
2. Place the flat tire face up under the hoist.
3. Insert the hoist bracket into the center hole
of the flat tire.
4. Slowly turn the wheel nut wrench clockwise
to take up the hoist cable slack. Make sure
the bracket is seated in the center hole of
the flat tire.
5. Turn the wheel nut wrench with the jack
handle bar (clockwise) until the flat tire rests
against the underbody of the vehicle, and
you hear the hoist click.
6. Securely store the jack, wheel nut wrench,
and jack handle bar back in the tool case.
Store the case in the cargo area.
If you replace a flat tire wi th the spare tire, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes
on while you are driving. After driving for a few miles (kilometers), the indicator will
start blinking for a short time and then stay on. Tire Pressure Monitor Problem
appears on the multi-information display (MID), but this is normal.
If you replace the tire with a specified regular tire, the warning message on the MID
and the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will go off after a few miles (kilometers).
