Changing a Flat Tire

If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel damage
by driving slowly to a level place. Turn on your
hazard warning flashers.

{

CAUTION:

Changing a tire can cause an injury. The
vehicle can slip off the jack and roll over you
or other people. You and they could be badly
injured. Find a level place to change your tire.
To help prevent the vehicle from moving:

1. Set the parking brake firmly.

2. Put the shift lever in PARK (P).

3. Turn off the engine.

4. Put the wheel blocks at the front and rear

of the tire farthest away from the one
being changed. That would be the tire on
the other side of the vehicle, at the
opposite end.

The following steps will tell you how to use the jack and
change a tire.
