TIRE CHANGING/ EMERGENCY REPAIR
Your car comes standard with an emergency tire repair kit rather than a spare tire.
You do not need to jack up the car in order to use the kit. Follow the instructions provided
in the tire repair kit to inject a sealant into the tire and re-inflate it while the tire is still on
your car.
At the earliest opportunity, you should have the tire inspected and repaired or replaced;
the emergency sealant is designed to allow you to safely get off the road and drive to a
gas station or other repair location. Contact your WHEEGO Dealer for a replacement tire.
Should you choose instead to change the tire yourself, you need to observe the following
precautions:
• Park the vehicle on a firm level surface, avoiding icy or slippery areas.
• Set the parking brake and block both the front and rear of the tire diagonally
• opposite the jacking position. For example, if the left front tire is being changed,
block the right rear wheel.
• Use a small floor-style jack or low-profile scissor jack.
• Jack the vehicle only from the side of the vehicle on the main frame rail or from the
rear axle.
WARNING
Getting under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off of the
jack and fall on you. Never get any part of your body under a vehicle that is on a
jack. Never start or run the motor when the vehicle is on the jack. If you need to get
under the vehicle, make sure the vehicle is first located on a flat solid surface and is
supported securely by automotive jack stands of appropriate capacity or take the
vehicle to a service center where a technician can put it on a hoist.
Jacking at any location other than a proper jacking point may cause major vehicle
body damage.
