CHANGING A FLAT TIRE
WARNING: If the tire pressure
monitor sensor becomes damaged it
may not function.
Note: The use of tire sealant may damage
your tire pressure monitoring system and
should only be used in roadside
emergencies.
Note: The tire pressure monitoring system
indicator light illuminates when the spare
tire is in use. To restore the full function of
the monitoring system, all road wheels
equipped with tire pressure monitoring
sensors must be mounted on this vehicle.
If you get a flat tire when driving, do not
apply the brake heavily. Instead, gradually
decrease your speed. Hold the steering
wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe
place on the side of the road.
Have a flat serviced by an authorized
dealer to prevent damage to the system
sensors.
See Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Precautions (page 449). Replace
the spare tire with a road tire as soon as
possible. During repairing or replacing the
flat tire, have the authorized dealer inspect
the system sensor for damage.
Dissimilar Spare Wheel and Tire
Assembly Information WARNING:
Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in an increased
risk of loss of vehicle control, injury or
death. If you have a dissimilar spare wheel and
tire, then it is intended for temporary use
only. This means that if you need to use it,
you should replace it as soon as possible
with a road wheel and tire assembly that
is the same size and type as the road tires
and wheels that were originally provided
by Ford. If the dissimilar spare tire or wheel
is damaged, it should be replaced rather
than repaired.
A dissimilar spare wheel and tire assembly
is defined as a spare wheel and tire
assembly that is different in brand, size or
appearance from the road tires and
wheels.

wheel and tire assembly at a time.
• Use snow chains on the end of the
vehicle with the dissimilar spare wheel
and tire assembly.
When driving with the full-size dissimilar
spare wheel and tire assembly, 4WD
functionality may be limited. You may
experience the following:
• Additional noise from the transfer case
or other drive components.
• Difficulty shifting out of a mechanically
locked 4WD mode.
When driving with the full-size dissimilar
spare wheel and tire assembly, it is

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:
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. WARNING:
Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in an increased
risk of loss of vehicle control, injury or
death. WARNING:
Never place anything
between the vehicle jack and your
vehicle. WARNING:
Never place anything
between the vehicle jack and the ground. WARNING:
Park your vehicle so
that you do not obstruct the flow of
traffic or place yourself in any danger and
set up a warning triangle. WARNING:
The jack supplied with
this vehicle is only intended for changing
a flat tire in an emergency. Do not
attempt to do any other work on your
vehicle when it is supported by the jack,
as your vehicle could slip off the jack.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death. 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:
Only use the spare
wheel carrier to stow wheels provided
with your vehicle.
Note: Do not use impact tools or power
tools operating at over 200 RPM on the
spare wheel carrier winch, which may cause
it to malfunction and result in the wheel and
tire not being securely stowed.
Note: Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
1. Park the vehicle on a level firm ground and activate the hazard flashers.
2. Apply the parking brake, place the transmission in park (P), switch the
engine off.
3. Block the wheel diagonally opposite the flat tire. For example, if the left
front tire is flat, block the right rear
wheel. 4. You can find the jack on the floor
behind the rear-most seat on the
passenger side. Turn the retainers
counterclockwise to remove the jack.

extension, through the bumper hole
and into the guide tube. Additional
extensions will be needed if the tailgate
is in the lowered position and cannot
be raised. Turn the handle
counterclockwise and lower the spare
tire until you can slide the tire rearward
and the cable is slack. You will feel
some resistance when you turn the jack
handle assembly. If not replacing the
spare or flat tire to the underbody
storage area, raise the wheel retainer
up into the installed position. Do not
store spare or flat tire at other
locations.

Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench,
replace the flat tire with the spare, making
sure the valve stem of the spare is facing
outward when replacing a front wheel. For
the rear wheel position on vehicles with
single rear wheel fitments, install the spare
with the valve stem facing outward. For
vehicles with dual rear wheels, the valve
stem of the spare must face outward when
replacing an inner wheel, but must face
inward when replacing an outboard wheel.
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.
Lower the vehicle completely by turning
the jack handle counterclockwise until the
vehicle is completely lowered.
Note:
For F-350 Dual Rear Wheel, F-450
and F-550 Vehicles, insert the notched end
of the jack handle to the release valve, open
the release valve slightly by turning the

Note:
For dual rear wheels, align the
ornament with the lug nuts. (A) is the clip
in the ornament and (B) is the flange of the
lug nut. Make sure that each of the retention
clips are sitting on a lug nut flange. Note:
If the ornament retention clips are
aligned between the studs or lug nuts, the
ornament will be improperly installed. This
improper installation may appear and sound
correct, but will not keep the ornament on
the vehicle. Ornaments improperly installed
in this manner may become loose or fall off
during driving. Use your hand or a rubber mallet to tap the
ornament until the retention clips snap
over the lug nut flanges. Tap in a star
pattern until the ornament seats fully onto
the wheel. There should be an even gap
between the ornament and the wheel
when it is properly installed.
Stowing the Flat Tire or Spare Tire
1. Place the tire on end with the valve
stem facing toward the front of the
vehicle. Lay the tire on the ground, near
the rear of the vehicle, with the valve
stem side facing up.
