WARNING! (Continued)
The jack is designed to use as a tool for changing tires only. The jack should not
be used to lift the vehicle for service purposes. The vehicle should be jacked on a
firm, level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
WARNING!
The compact spare tire is for emergency use only. Installation of this compact
spare tire affects vehicle handling.
Do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h) with a compact spare tire.
Keep the compact spare tire inflated to the cold tire inflation pressure, listed on
either your tire placard or limited use spare tire and wheel assembly.
Replace (or repair) the original tire at the first opportunity and reinstall it on your
vehicle. Failure to do so could result in loss of vehicle control.
A loose tire or jack, thrown forward in an accident or hard stop, could endanger
the occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and spare tire in the
places provided.
Jack Location
The jack and jack-handle are stowed under
the load floor in the trunk.
Spare Tire Stowage
The compact spare tire is stowed under the
rear load floor in the trunk.
To remove the spare tire, lift up the load floor
cover and remove the hold down.
Preparations For Jacking
Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull
far enough off the road to avoid being hit when operating the jack or changing the
wheel.
