JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
WARNING!
•
Getting under a jacked-up vehicle is dan-
gerous. The vehicle could slip off the jack
and fall on you. You could be crushed.
Never get 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.
•
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 pur-
poses. The vehicle should be jacked on a
firm, level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery
areas.
Jack Location
The scissor-type jack and tire changing tools
are located in rear cargo area, below the load
floor.
Spare Tire Stowage
The spare tire is stowed under the load floor in
the rear cargo area.
Preparations for Jacking
1. Park the vehicle on a firm, level surface.
Avoid ice or slippery surfaces.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of
the vehicle closest to moving traffic. Pull far
enough off the road to avoid being hit when
operating the jack or changing the wheel.

3. Set the parking brake.
4. Place the shift lever into PARK.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. Block both the front
and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of
the jacking position. For
example, if changing
the right front tire, block
the left rear wheel.
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in the vehicle
when the vehicle is being jacked.
