1 — Lug Wrench
2 — Long Extension 2
3 — Long Extension 3
4 — Long Extension 4
5 — Short Extension 5
6 — Extension With Hook
WARNING!
After using the jack and tools, always reinstall 
them in the original carrier and location. While 
driving you may experience abrupt stopping, 
rapid acceleration or sharp turns. A loose jack, 
tools, bracket or other objects in the vehicle may 
move around with force, resulting in serious 
injury.
CAUTION!
The winch mechanism is designed for use with 
the jack extension tube only. Use of an air 
wrench or other power tools is not 
recommended and can damage the winch.

382IN CASE OF EMERGENCY  
7. Lower the vehicle to the ground and finish  tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the 
wrench handle for increased leverage. Tighten 
the lug nuts in a star pattern until each lug nut 
has been tightened twice  Ú page 466. If in 
doubt about the correct tightness, have them 
checked with a torque wrench by an 
authorized dealer or at a service station.
8. If your vehicle is equipped with a wheel center  cap, install the cap and remove the wheel 
blocks. Do not install chrome or aluminum 
wheel center caps on the spare wheel. This 
may result in cap damage.
9. Lower the jack to its fully closed position. Stow  the replaced tire, and secure the jack and tools 
in the proper location.
10. Adjust the tire pressure when possible.
TO STOW THE FLAT OR SPARE 
1. Lift the spare tire with one hand to give  clearance to tilt the retainer at the end of the 
cable.
2. Position the wheel behind the rear fascia/ bumper facing outward. Push the end of the 
winch’s cable, spring and steel sleeve through 
the back of the road wheel. Making sure the 
valve stem is facing the ground when the 
wheel is stowed.
Reinstalling The Retainer
 3. Remove the extension with the hook and 
reattach the short extension 5. Attach the lug 
wrench to the extension tubes with the curved 
angle facing away from the vehicle  
Úpage 376. Insert the extension tubes 
through the access hole between the lower 
tailgate and the top of the fascia/bumper and 
into the winch mechanism tube.
Reinstalling The Flat Or Spare Tire
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision 
or hard stop, could endanger the occupants of 
the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the 
spare tire in the places provided.
CAUTION!
The winch mechanism is designed for use with 
the jack extension tube only. Use of an air 
wrench or other power tools is not 
recommended and can damage the winch.

418SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE  
ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT INSPECTION
When inspecting accessory drive belts, small 
cracks that run across the ribbed surface of the 
belt from rib to rib, are considered normal. This is 
not a reason to replace the belt. However, cracks 
running along a rib (not across) are not normal. Any 
belt with cracks running along a rib must be 
replaced. Also have the belt replaced if it has 
excessive wear, frayed cords or severe glazing.
 Accessory Belt (Serpentine Belt)
Conditions that would require replacement:
Rib chunking (one or more ribs has separated 
from belt body)
Rib or belt wear
Longitudinal belt cracking (cracks between two 
ribs)
Belt slips
“Groove jumping" (belt does not maintain 
correct position on pulley)
Belt broken
Noise (objectionable squeal, squeak, or rumble 
is heard or felt while drive belt is in operation)
NOTE:Identify and correct problem before new belt is 
installed.
NOTE:If your vehicle is equipped with a Stop/Start, belt 
must be replaced with an OEM grade Mopar® belt.
Some conditions can be caused by a faulty 
component such as a belt pulley. Belt pulleys 
should be carefully inspected for damage and 
proper alignment.
Belt replacement on some models requires the 
use of special tools, we recommend having your 
vehicle serviced at an authorized dealer.
BODY LUBRICATION  
Locks and all body pivot points, including such 
items as seat tracks, door hinge pivot points and 
rollers, liftgate, tailgate, decklid, sliding doors and 
hood hinges, should be lubricated periodically. Use 
a lithium-based grease, such as Mopar® Spray 
White Lube to assure quiet, easy operation and to 
protect against rust and wear. Prior to the 
application of any lubricant, the parts concerned 
should be wiped clean to remove dust and grit; 
after lubricating excess oil and grease should be 
removed. Particular attention should also be given 
to hood latching components to ensure proper 
function. When performing other underhood 
services, the hood latch release mechanism, and 
safety catch should be cleaned and lubricated.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to inspect an accessory drive 
belt with vehicle running.
When working near the radiator cooling fan, 
disconnect the fan motor lead. The fan is 
temperature controlled and can start at any 
time regardless of ignition mode. You could be 
injured by the moving fan blades.
You can be badly injured working on or around 
a motor vehicle. Only do service work for which 
you have the knowledge and the proper equip -
ment. If you have any doubt about your ability 
to perform a service job, take your vehicle to a 
competent mechanic.
