1. Park on a level surface, activate
hazard flashers and set the parking
brake.

2. Place gearshift lever in P (Park)
and turn engine OFF.

3. Block the diagonally opposite
wheel.

4. Obtain the spare tire and jack
from their storage locations.

5. Use the tip of the lug wrench to
remove any wheel trim.

6. Loosen each wheel lug nut
one-half turn counterclockwise but
do not remove them until the wheel
is raised off the ground.

7. Position the jack according to the following guides and turn the jack
handle clockwise until the wheel is completely off the ground.

When one of the rear wheels is off the ground, the transmission
alone will not prevent the vehicle from moving or slipping off the

jack, even if the transmission is in P (Park). To prevent the vehicle
from moving when you change the tire, be sure that the parking brake
is set and the diagonally opposite wheel is blocked. If the vehicle slips
off the jack, someone could be seriously injured.
