Changing a Flat Tire, If Your Engine Won't Start

15. Remove the wheel cover or center

cap.
Place the flat tire face down in the
spare tire well.

16. Remove the spacer cone from the

wing bolt, turn it over, and put it
back on the bolt.

17. Secure the flat tire by screwing

the wing bolt back into its hole.

18. Store the jack in its holder with

the end bracket facing to the right.
Turn the jack's end bracket to lock
it in place. Store the tool kit.

19. Store the wheel cover or center

cap in the cargo area. Make sure it
will not get scratched or damaged.

20. Reinstall the floor mat and spare

tire cover, then close the hatch.

If Your Engine Won't Start

Diagnosing why your engine won't
start falls into two areas, depending
on what you hear when you turn the
key to START (III):

You hear nothing, or almost

nothing. The engine's starter
motor does not operate at all, or
operates very slowly.

You can hear the starter motor

operating normally, or the starter
motor sounds like it is spinning

faster than normal, but the engine

does not start up and run.

Taking Care of the Unexpected

WING BOLT

SPACER

CONE

Loose items can fly around the
interior in a crash and could
seriously injure the occupants.

Store the wheel, jack and tools
securely before driving.
