WARNING!

A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard

stop could endanger the occupants of the vehicle. Al-

ways stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the places

provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired or re-

placed immediately.

Road Tire Installation
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end

of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.

WARNING!

To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do

not tighten the lug nuts fully until the vehicle has been

lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result in

personal injury.

3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack

handle counterclockwise.

4. Refer to Torque Table for proper lug nut torque.
5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut torque with a

torque wrench to ensure that all lug nuts are properly

seated against the wheel.

JUMP-STARTING PROCEDURES

If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be jump-

started using a set of jumper cables and a battery in

another vehicle or by using a portable battery booster

pack. Jump-starting can be dangerous if done improperly

so please follow the procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:

When using a portable battery booster pack

follow the manufacturer’s operating instructions and

precautions.
