Tire change procedure

To prevent the vehicle from moving when
you change a tire, be sure the parking brake

is set, then block (in both directions) the wheel
that is diagonally opposite (other side and end of
the vehicle) to the tire being changed.

If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or
someone else could be seriously injured.

1. Park on a level
surface, activate hazard
flashers and set
parking brake.

2. Place gearshift lever
in P (Park) or R (manual transmission), turn engine
OFF, and block the diagonally opposite wheel.

3. Remove the spare
tire, jack and lug
wrench.
