6. Start the engine of the vehicle

Changing a Tire

If you have a flat tire while

driving, stop in a safe place to

change it. Stopping in traffic or on

the shoulder of a busy road is

dangerous. Drive slowly along the

shoulder until you get to an exit or

an area to stop that is far away

from the traffic lanes.

In Case of Emergency

1. Park on a level surface and set

the parking brake firmly. Turn

on the hazard warning flasher,

and turn the ignition switch to

LOCK.

2. Set the automatic transmission

in "Park" (the manual

transmission in "Reverse")

and transfer case in gear if it

is a four-wheel drive vehicle.

3. Have your passengers get out

of the vehicle.

4. Remove the jacking tools (see

page

188

) and spare tire from

their stowage areas.

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.
