WARNING

Changing a tire can be
dangerous. The vehicle can slip
off the jack and roll over or fall
on you or other people. You and
they could be badly injured or
even killed. Find a level place to
change your tire. To help prevent
the vehicle from moving:

1. Set the parking brake firmly.

2. Put an automatic

transmission shift lever in
P (Park), or shift a manual
transmission to 1 (First) or
R (Reverse).

3. Turn off the engine and do

not restart while the vehicle
is raised.

4. Do not allow passengers to

remain in the vehicle.

rear of the tire farthest away from

would be the tire on the other
side, at the opposite end of the
vehicle.

and spare tire or a tire sealant and
compressor kit. To use the jacking
equipment to change a spare tire
safely, follow the instructions below.
