transmission alone will not prevent the
vehicle from moving or slipping off the
jack, even if the transmission is in park
(P).

WARNING: To help prevent your
vehicle from moving when changing a
wheel, shift the transmission into park
(P), set the parking brake and use an
appropriate block or wheel chock to
secure the wheel diagonally opposite to
the wheel being changed. For example,
when changing the front left wheel,
place an appropriate block or wheel
chock on the right rear wheel. WARNING:
Do not work on your
vehicle when the jack is the only support.
If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or
someone else could be seriously injured. 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. WARNING:
Always use the jack
provided as original equipment with your
vehicle. If using a jack other than the one
provided, make sure the jack capacity is
adequate for the vehicle weight,
including any vehicle cargo or
modifications. If you are unsure if the jack
capacity is adequate, contact the
authorized dealer.
Note: Passengers should not remain in your
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Note: Jack at the specified locations to
avoid damage to the vehicle.
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. Block the diagonally opposite wheel.
4. Lift the trunk cargo cover and remove
the wing nut that secures the spare tire
by turning it counterclockwise.
5. Lift and remove the spare tire from the
trunk.

remove the jack kit from your vehicle.
7. Remove the jack and the wrench from the felt bag. Fold down the wrench
socket used to loosen the lug nuts and
to operate the jack.
8. Loosen each wheel lug nut one-half turn counterclockwise, but do not
remove them until the wheel is raised
off the ground. 9. The vehicle jacking points are shown
here, and are depicted on the warning
label on the jack. Small arrow-shaped
marks on the sills show the location of
the jacking points. 10. Raise the wheel by turning the jack
handle clockwise. 11. Remove the lug nuts with the lug
wrench.
12. 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.
13. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise. 14.
Remove the jack and fully tighten the
lug nuts in the order shown. See
Technical Specifications (page

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications WARNING: When you install a wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign
materials present on the mounting surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel
hub, brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure to secure any fasteners
that attach the rotor to the hub so they do not interfere with the mounting surfaces of
the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact at the wheel
mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while
your vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of vehicle control, personal injury or death. Ib-ft (Nm)
