SAFETY169
EXHAUST GAS The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust
system.
Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust
system, when exhaust fumes can be detected inside the
vehicle, or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is
damaged, have an authorized dealer inspect the complete
exhaust system and adjacent body areas for broken,
damaged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts. Open
seams or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes
to seep into the passenger compartment. In addition,
inspect the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised
for lubrication or oil change. Replace as required.CARBON MONOXIDE WARNINGS
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless.
Breathing it can make you unconscious and can
eventually poison you. To avoid breathing (CO), follow
these safety tips:
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in
confined areas any longer than needed to move your
vehicle in or out of the area.
 If you are required to drive with the trunk/liftgate/
rear doors open, make sure that all windows are
closed and the climate control BLOWER switch is set
at high speed. DO NOT use the recirculation mode.
 If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the
engine running, adjust your heating or cooling
controls to force outside air into the vehicle.
Set the blower at high speed.
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly.
Follow the precautions below to prevent carbon
monoxide poisoning:
Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon
monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, which can
kill. Never run the engine in a closed area, such as a
garage, and never sit in a parked vehicle with the
engine running for an extended period. If the vehicle
is stopped in an open area with the engine running
for more than a short period, adjust the ventilation
system to force fresh, outside air into the vehicle.
 Guard against carbon monoxide with proper mainte -
nance. Have the exhaust system inspected every
time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal condi -
tions repaired promptly. Until repaired, drive with all
side windows fully open.

Do not pry the wheel cover off. Then pull the wheel off
the hub.
6. Install the inflatable spare on the vehicle, located in the rear cargo area of the vehicle.

Mounting Inflatable Spare Tire

NOTE:
Do not install the wheel cover on the inflatable spare tire.
7. Leave the vehicle on the jack and start inflating the inflatable spare after the tire has been mounted to
the vehicle. Secure the wheel to the hub by tightening
the nuts with the wrench. After inflation, once the
vehicle is lowered you will have a second opportunity
to “torque” the lug nuts
Úpage 235. 8. Inflate the tire to the prescribed pressure 60 psi
(4.2 Bar) using the Portable Air Compressor
Úpage 179 or Tire Service Kit if equipped Úpage 180.
9. Lower the vehicle once the inflatable Spare has reached its pressure and the compressor-hose has
been removed from the tire valve.
10. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until
each nut has been tightened twice
Úpage 235.
If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them
checked with a torque wrench by an authorized
dealer or at a service station.
11. Lower the jack to its fully-closed position.
12. Place the deflated (flat) tire and foam tray cover assembly in the rear cargo area. Do not stow the
deflated tire in the inflatable spare tire location. Have
the full-sized tire repaired or replaced, as soon as
possible.WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the
vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and hurt
someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough to
remove the tire.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do
not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result
in serious injury.
CAUTION!
Be sure to mount the inflatable spare tire with the valve
stem facing outward. The vehicle could be damaged if
the inflatable spare tire is mounted incorrectly.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard
stop could endanger the occupants of the vehicle.
Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the
places provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired
or replaced immediately.

Storing The Jack

ROAD TIRE INSTALLATION
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel Covers

1. Mount the road tire on the axle.

2. To ease the installation process for steel wheels with wheel covers, install two lug nuts on the mounting
studs which are on each side of the valve stem. Install
the lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut
toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.

Tire And Wheel Cover Or Center Cap

3. Align the valve notch in the wheel cover with the valve stem on the wheel. Install the cover by hand, snapping the
cover over the two lug nuts. Do not use a hammer or
excessive force to install the cover.
4. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten all the lug nuts
until the wheel sits flush onto the hub and there is no play.
The nuts will have to be fully tightened once the vehicle is
lowered. Tightening an improperly seated wheel under
vehicle load can damage the threads, cause vibration, and
undermine safety.

5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.

6. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased leverage.
Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until each nut has
been tightened twice. Details for proper wheel lug nut
