7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
4Turn the tire jack portion by
hand until the center of the
recessed portion of the jack is in
contact with the center of the
jack point.
5 Assemble the jack handle
extension.
6 Raise the vehicle until the tire is
slightly raised off the ground.

surface.
WARNING
■Replacing a flat tire
●Do not touch the disc wheels or the
area around the brakes immedi- ately after the vehicle has been driven. After the vehicle has been
driven the disc wheels and the area around the brakes will be extremely hot. Touching these areas with
hands, feet or other body parts while changing a tire, etc. may result in burns.
●Failure to follow these precautions could cause the wheel nuts to
loosen and the tire to fall off, result- ing in death or serious injury.

■When the compact spare tire (if equipped) is equipped
The vehicle becomes lower when driv-
ing with the compact spare tire com- pared to when driving with standard tires.
■When using the compact spare tire
(if equipped)
As the compact spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter, low inflation pres- sure of the compact spare tire will not be indicated by the tire pressure warning
system. Also, if you replace the compact spare tire after the tire pressure warning light comes on, the light remains on.
■If you have a flat front tire on a road
covered with snow or ice (vehicles with a compact spare tire)
Install the compact spare tire on one of
the rear wheels of the vehicle. Perform the following steps and fit tire chains to the front tires:
1 Replace a rear tire with the compact
spare tire.
2 Replace the flat front tire with the tire removed from the rear of the vehicle.
3 Fit tire chains to the front tires.

spare tire)
