If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel

your hazard warning flashers. See Hazard
Warning Flashers on page 204 for more
information.

CAUTION:
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 the shift lever in PARK (P).

3. If you have a four-wheel-drive vehicle,
be sure the transfer case is in a drive
gear— not in NEUTRAL.
4. Turn off the engine and do not restart
while the vehicle is raised.
5. Do not allow passengers to remain in
the vehicle.
6. Put the wheel blocks at the front and
rear of the tire farthest away from the
one being changed. That would be
the tire on the other side, at the
opposite end of the vehicle.
