If you have a flat tire while driving,
stop in a safe place to change it.
Drive slowly along the shoulder until
you get to an exit or an area that is
far away from the traffic lanes.

Park the vehicle on firm, level and
non-slippery ground. Put the
transmission in Reverse (5-speed
manual) or Park (CVT). Apply the
parking brake.

Open the hatch. Raise the cargo
area floor by lifting up on the back
edge.

Remove the storage box from the
cargo area well.

Take the tool kit from the spare
tire well. Remove the jack (in the
jack cover) from the inside of the
spare tire.

Unscrew the wing bolt, and take
the spare tire out of its well.

Turn on the hazard warning
indicators, and turn the ignition
switch to LOCK (0). Have your
passenger get out of the vehicle
while you change the tire.

The vehicle can easily roll off
the jack, seriously injuring
anyone underneath.

Follow the directions for
changing a tire exactly, and
never get under the vehicle
when it is supported only by the
jack.
