If you have a flat tire, follow the instructions
below:
Stopping the vehicle
1. Safely move the vehicle off the road and
away from traffic.
2. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
3. Park on a level surface and apply the
parking brake. Shift the manual transmis-
sion into R (Reverse), or the automatic
transmission into P (Park).
WARNING
●
The transfer control lever
must be in the 2H, 4H or 4L position.
● Never place the transfer control le-
ver in the N position. Otherwise, the
vehicle could roll unexpectedly even
if the manual transmission is in gear
or the automatic transmission is in
the P position. This could result in
serious personal injury or property
damage.
4. Turn off the engine.
5. Raise the hood to warn other traffic and
to signal professional road assistance
personnel that you require assistance.
6. Have all passengers get out of the ve-
hicle and stand in a safe place away from
traffic and clear of the vehicle.
WARNING
● Make sure that the parking brake is
securely applied and the manual
transmission is shifted into R (Re-
verse), or the automatic transmis-
sion into P (Park).
● Never change tires when the vehicle
is on a slope, ice or a slippery area.
This is hazardous.
● Never change tires if oncoming traf-
fic is close to your vehicle. Wait for
professional road assistance.
Blocking wheels
Place suitable blocks at both the front and
back of the wheel diagonally opposite the
flat tire to prevent the vehicle from rolling
when it is jacked up.
WARNING
Be sure to block the wheel as the ve-
hicle may move and could cause per-
sonal injury.
