JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with an air suspen
-
sion system, there is a feature which allows the
automatic leveling to be disabled to assist with
changing a tire.
This feature can be activated through the Ucon
-
nect system.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia”
for further information.
Jack Location
The jack and jack tools are stored under the
front passenger seat.
Removal Of Jack And Tools
To access the jack and jack tools, you must
remove the plastic access cover located on the
side of the front passenger’s seat. To remove
the cover, pull the front part of the cover
(closest to the front of the seat) toward you to
release a locking tab. Once the front of the
cover is loose, slide the cover toward the front
of the seat until it is free from the seat frame.
Jack Access Cover
Remove the jack and tools by turning the wing
bolt counterclockwise, remove the wing bolt
and then slide the assembly out from under the
seat.

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.
