Electronic Sway Bar Disconnect — If
Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an elec-
tronic disconnecting stabilizer/sway bar. This
system allows greater front suspension travel
in off-road situations.This system is controlled by the SWAY BAR
switch located on the instrument panel (to
the left of the steering column).
Push the SWAY BAR switch to activate the
system. Push the switch again to deactivate
the system. The “Sway Bar Indicator Light”
(located in the instrument cluster) will illumi-
nate when the bar is disconnected. The
“Sway Bar Indicator Light” will flash during
activation transition, or when activation con-ditions are not met. The stabilizer/sway bar
should remain in on-road mode during nor-
mal driving conditions.
WARNING!
Do not disconnect the stabilizer bar and
drive on hardsurfaced roads or at speeds
above 18 mph (29 km/h); you may lose
control of the vehicle, which could result
in serious injury. The front stabilizer bar
enhances vehicle stability and is neces-
sary for maintaining control of the vehicle.
The system monitors vehicle speed and
will attempt to reconnect the stabilizer bar
at speeds over 18 mph (29 km/h). This is
indicated by a flashing or solid “Sway Bar
Indicator Light.” Once vehicle speed is
reduced below 14 mph (22 km/h), the
system will once again attempt to return to
off-road mode.
To disconnect the stabilizer/sway bar, shift to
either 4H or 4L and push the SWAY BAR
switch to obtain the off-road position. Refer
to “Four-Wheel Drive Operation” in this sec-

JACKING AND TIRE
CHANGING
WARNING!
• Do not attempt to change a tire on the
side of the vehicle close to moving traf-
fic. 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 dan-
gerous. 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.
• Never start or run the engine while the
vehicle is on a jack.
• 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.
Jack/Spare Tire Stowage
The jack and lug wrench are located in the
rear storage compartment.
NOTE:
Turn the black plastic wing nut counterclock-
wise to loosen the jack from the storage bin.Spare Tire Removal
To remove the spare tire from the carrier,
remove the tire cover, if equipped, and re-
move the lug nuts with the lug wrench, turn-
ing them counterclockwise.
NOTE:
If you have added aftermarket accessories to
the spare tire mounted carrier, it cannot ex-
ceed a gross weight of 85 lbs (38.5 kg)
including the weight of the spare tire.
Preparations For Jacking
1. Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or
slippery areas.
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.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Apply the parking brake.

5. Turn the ignition to LOCK.
6. Block both the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the jacking posi-
tion. For example, if changing the right
front tire, block the left rear wheel.

Passengers should not remain in the vehicle
when the vehicle is being jacked.Jacking Instructions
WARNING!
Carefully follow these tire changing warn-
ings 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 an
automatic transmission in PARK; a
manual transmission in REVERSE.
• Never start or run the engine with the
vehicle on a jack.
• Do not let anyone 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 indi-
cated and for lifting this vehicle during a
tire change.
WARNING!
• If working on or near a roadway, be
extremely careful of motor traffic.
• To assure that spare tires, flat or in-
flated, are securely stowed, spares must
be stowed with the valve stem facing the
ground.

CAUTION!
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by
jacking on locations other than those indi-
cated.
1. Remove the spare tire, jack and tools from
the stored location.
2. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug
nuts by turning them to the left one turn
while the wheel is still on the ground.
3. Assemble the jack and jacking tools. Con-
nect the jack handle driver to the exten-
sion, then to the lug wrench.4. Operate the jack from the front or the rear

hicle until you are sure the jack is fully
engaged.
5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack
screw clockwise. Raise the vehicle only
until the tire just clears the surface and

screw to the left, and remove the jack.9. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down
on the wrench while tightening for in-
creased leverage. Alternate nuts until
each nut has been tightened twice. Refer
to “Torque Specifications” in “Technical
Specifications” for correct lug nut torque.
10. Remove the jack assembly and wheel
blocks.
11. Secure the tire, jack, and tools in their
proper locations.
