Tire change procedure

To help 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 the parking
brake.

2. Turn engine OFF and block the
diagonally opposite wheel (block not
provided).

3. Remove the jack, jack handle, lug
wrench and spare tire from the
stowage locations.

4. Use the tip of the lug wrench to remove any wheel trim.
