WARNING!
Do not attempt to repair a tire on the side of the
vehicle close to traffic. Pull far enough off the road to
avoid the danger of being hit when operating the
jack or repairing a tire.
Jacking the vehicle should only be necessary in the event
that a tire has been severely damaged, and must be
replaced. (See TIREFIT Tire Repair section for a descrip-
tion of cuts and punctures that may be repairable with
TIREFIT.)
•
Turn on the hazard warning flashers and park the
vehicle on a firm, level surface; avoid ice or slippery
areas.
•
Firmly set the parking brake and shift the transmission
selector lever into PARK.
•
Turn off the engine.
•
Block the wheel diagonally opposite the flat tire.
