Removing a Flat Tire
WARNING
When jacking-up a vehicle, always shift the
shift lever to 1st or R (manual transaxle
vehicle) or shift the selector lever to P
(automatic transaxle vehicle), apply the
parking brake, and place wheel blocks in
the position diagonally opposed to the
jack:
Changing a
at
tire without using wheel
blocks is dangerous because the vehicle
may move and fall o the jack even with
the shift lever in 1st or R, or the select lever
is in P, which could result in an accident.
1. If your vehicle is equipped with steel
wheels, pry off the center cap with the
beveled end of the jack lever.
CAUTION
Use the jack lever when removing the
center cap. Using your hands to remove
it may cause an injury. In addition,
using a tool other than the jack lever
may cause damage to the wheel or the
center cap.
