If you have a flat tire while driving,
stop in a safe place to change it.
Drive slowly along the shoulder until
you get to an exit or an area that is
far away from the traffic lanes.

If you are towing a trailer, unhitch
the trailer.

Turn on the hazard warning
indicators, and turn the ignition
switch to LOCK (0). Have all the
passengers get out of the vehicle
while you change the tire.

The tools are in the trunk. Open
the trunk and raise the trunk floor
by lifting up on the back edge.

Take the tool kit out of the trunk.

Unscrew the wing bolt and take
the spare tire out of its well.

Park the vehicle on firm, level and
non-slippery ground. Put the
transmission in Park (A/T) or
Reverse (M/T). Apply the parking
brake.

The vehicle can easily roll off
the jack, seriously injuring
anyone underneath.

Follow the directions for
changing a tire exactly, and
never get under the vehicle
when it is supported only by the
jack.
