JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING — IF EQUIPPED
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.
• Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. 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 Location
The jack, jack handle and winch handle tools are stowed behind the rear left side trim
panel in the rear cargo area. Turn the two cover latches to release the cover.
Spare Tire Removal
The spare tire is stowed inside a protective cover located under the center of the vehicle
between the front doors by means of a cable winch mechanism. The “spare tire drive” nut
is located on the floor, under a plastic cap at the front of the floor console or under front
super console forward bin liner.
