If you have a flat tyre while driving,
stop in a safe place to change it.
Stopping in traffic or on the shoulder
of a busy road is dangerous. Drive
slowly along the shoulder until you
get to an exit or an area to stop that
is far away from the traffic lanes.
Use the jack that came with your
vehicle. If you try to raise another
vehicle with this jack or use another
jack to raise your vehicle, the vehicle
or jack can be damaged.
Park the vehicle on firm, level and
non-slippery ground. Put the
transmission in Park (automatic)
or reverse (manual). Apply the
parking brake.
If you are towing a trailer, unhitch
the trailer.
Turn on the hazard warning
indicators, and turn the ignition
switch to the LOCK (0) position.
Have all the passengers get out of
the vehicle while you change the
tyre.

The vehicle can easily roll off
the jack, seriously injuring
anyone underneath.
Follow the directions for
changing a tyre exactly, and
never get under the vehicle
when it is supported only by
the jack.
