1 Preparation of tire replacement
1. Park the vehicle on a flat, hard surface. Firmly
set the parking brake. In a manual transmission
vehicle, put the gearshift lever in the neutral
position. In an automatic transmission vehicle,
put the range selector lever in the “P” position
<other than FM65F> or “N” position <FM65F>.
2. If you get a flat tire while on the road and need
to change it on the spot, pull up your vehicle in a
safe place where it will not block traffic, and acti-
vate your hazard warning lamps to flash and use
a red or white flag or cloth to give warning pass-
ing vehicles.
3. Have all passengers get out of the vehicle.
4. Block the tire with a chock diagonally opposite to
the tire to be replaced.
Example:
Block the left front tire if the right rear tire is to be
replaced.
5. Prepare a replacement tire.
NOTE:
•
Your vehicle is not provided with a replacement
tire as standard equipment.
