JACKING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Carefully follow these tire changing warnings 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 Flashers.
 Apply the parking brake firmly and shift an automatic
transmission into PARK; a manual transmission into
REVERSE.
 Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be
raised.
 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 indicated and for
lifting this vehicle during a tire change.
 If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful
of motor traffic.
 To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are
securely stowed, spares must be stowed with the
valve stem facing the ground.

Jack Warning Label

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. Connect the jack handle driver to the extension, then to the lug wrench.

Assembled Jack And Tools

NOTE:If your vehicle comes with factory equipped 35 inch
(88.9 centimeter) tires, a jack lift block is provided in the
rear cargo area. The jack lift block is used to provide
higher ground clearance when changing a flat or spare
tire. When placing the jack lift block under the jack, be
sure the bottom of the jack fits securely inside of the
raised edges of the block.

Jack Lift Box Usage

4. Operate the jack from the front or the rear of the vehicle. Place the jack under the axle tube, as shown.
Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is
fully engaged.

Front Lifting Point

NOTE:Keep the jack and tools aligned while raising the vehicle to
prevent tool damage.

Front Jacking Location

CAUTION!
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on
locations other than those indicated.

5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise. Raise the vehicle only until the tire just clears the
surface and enough clearance is obtained to install
the spare tire. Minimum tire lift provides maximum
stability. 6. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.
7. Mount the spare tire on the axle.
8. Install the lug nuts with the cone-shaped end toward
the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts clockwise.
9. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw to the counterclockwise, and remove the jack.
10. Finish tightening the wheel bolts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the wheel bolts in a star pattern
until each wheel bolt has been tightened twice Úpage 368. If in doubt about the correct tightness,
have them checked with a torque wrench by an
authorized dealer or at a service station.
11. After 25 miles (40 km), check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to ensure that all lug nuts are
properly seated against the wheel. 12. Remove the jack assembly and wheel blocks.
13. Secure the jack and tools in their proper locations.
14. Secure the damaged wheel/tire on the spare tire
carrier. Torque down lug nuts and locking lug nut.
15. Return the lock bolt to the lock position on the camera cover by turning the lock clockwise using the
provided #40 torx head driver and ratchet. Then,
reinstall the camera cover by slipping it over the
camera/tire carrier until it snaps into place.

Lock Bolt Location

WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the
vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and hurt
someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough to
change the tire.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do
not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result
in serious injury.
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.
