9. Lower the jack to its fully closed position.
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.
10. Secure the flat or spare tire as follows:
•
If your vehicle is equipped with cast alumi-
num wheels, the center cap of the wheel
must be removed prior to flat tire stowage.
Store the center cap inside the glove box or
other storage compartment.
•
Turn the wheel so that the valve-stem is
down. Slide the wheel retainer through the
center of the wheel and position it properly
across the wheel opening.
•
For convenience in checking the spare tire
inflation, stow with the valve-stem toward the
rear of the vehicle.
•
Using the jack-handle, rotate the drive nut to
the right until the wheel is drawn into place
against the underside of the vehicle.
•
Continue to rotate the nut until you hear the
mechanism click three times. It cannot be
overtightened. Push against the tire several
times to be sure it is securely in place.
11. Stow jack and handle.
12. Check the tire pressure as soon as possible.
Correct pressure as required.
JUMP-STARTING PROCEDURES IF
BATTERY IS LOW
WARNING!
•
Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan
whenever the hood is raised. It can start
anytime the ignition switch is on. You can be
hurt by the fan.
•
Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to
get it started. Vehicles equipped with an
automatic transaxle cannot be started this
way. Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic
converter and once the engine has started,
ignite and damage the converter and vehicle.
If the vehicle has a discharged battery,
booster cables may be used to obtain a start
from another vehicle. This type of start can be
dangerous if done improperly, so follow this
procedure carefully.
WARNING!
•
Battery fluid is a corrosive acid solution; do
not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin or
clothing. Don’t lean over battery when attach-
ing clamps or allow the clamps to touch each
other. If acid splashes in eyes or on skin, flush
contaminated area immediately with large
quantities of water.
•
A battery generates hydrogen gas which is
flammable and explosive. Keep flame or
spark away from the vent holes. Do not use a
booster battery or any other booster source
with an output that exceeds 12 volts.
•
During cold weather when temperatures are
below freezing point, electrolyte in a dis-
charged battery may freeze. Do not attempt
jump starting because the battery could rup-
ture or explode. The battery temperature
must be brought up above freezing point
before attempting to jump start.
