7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
Position the jack at the jack points
as shown.
X Front
X Rear
Raise the vehicle until the tire is
slightly raised off the ground.
Remove all the wheel nuts and the
tire.
When resting the tire on the ground, place
the tire so that the wheel design faces up to
avoid scratching the wheel surface.
Q Replacing a flat tire
O Do not touch the disc wheels or the
area around the brakes immediately
after the vehicle has been driven.
After the vehicle has been driven the
disc wheels and the area around the
brakes will be extremely hot. Touching
these areas with hands, feet or other
body parts while changing a tire, etc.
may result in burns.
O Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious
injury:
• Lower the spare tire completely to the
ground before removing it from under
the vehicle.
• Do not try to remove the wheel orna-
ment by hand. Take due care in han-
dling the ornament to avoid
unexpected personal injury.
• Turn off the AHC. The vehicle height
may change due to the automatic lev-
eling function and you may catch part
of your body in the vehicle, resulting in
an accident. (oP.409)
O Failure to follow these precautions
could cause the wheel nuts to loosen
and the tire to fall off, resulting in death
or serious injury.
