JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
WARNING!
• Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to movingtraffic. Pull far enough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when
operating the jack or changing the wheel.
• Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the
jack and fall on you. You could be crushed. Never put any part of your body
under a vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get under a raised vehicle, take
it to a service center where it can be raised on a lift.
• Never start or run the engine while the vehicle is on a jack.
• The jack is designed to be used as a tool for changing tires only. The jack
should not be used to lift the vehicle for service purposes. The vehicle should
be jacked on a firm level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
Run Flat Tires — SRT Models
This vehicle is equipped with “run flat” tires. Run flat tires allow the vehicle to be
driven approximately 50 miles (80km) at 55 mph (88km/h). Tire service should be
obtained to avoid prolonged run flat feature usage.
WARNING!
Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) if the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
is illuminated. Vehicle handling and braking may be reduced. You could have a
collision and be severely or fatally injured.

Preparations For Jacking
CAUTION!
Always lift or jack the vehicle from the correct jacking points. Failure to follow this
information could cause damage to the vehicle or underbody components.
NOTE:
To assist with changing a spare tire, the air suspension system (if equipped) has a
feature which allows the automatic leveling to be disabled.
1. Park the vehicle on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery surfaces.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle closest to moving traffic,
pull far enough off the road to avoid being hit when operating the jack or changing
the wheel.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Place the gear selector into PARK.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. Block both the front and rear of the wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking position. For example, if changing the
right front tire, block the left rear
wheel.
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being
jacked.
7. For vehicles equipped with Quadra- Lift, refer to “Quadra-Lift — If
Equipped” in “Starting And Operat-
ing” in the Owners Manual on the DVD
for further information on disabling
automatic leveling.

Jacking Instructions
WARNING!
Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to help prevent personal injury or
damage to your vehicle:
• Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway aspossible before raising the vehicle.
• Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Chock the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set an automatic transmission in PARK.
• Never start or run the engine with the vehicle on a jack.
• Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a jack. If you need to get under a
raised vehicle, take it to a service center where it can be raised on a lift.
• Only use the jack in the positions indicated and for lifting this vehicle during
a tire change.
• If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful of motor traffic.
• To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are securely stowed, spares must be
stowed with the valve stem facing the ground.
CAUTION!
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on locations other than those
indicated in the Jacking Instructions for this vehicle.
1. Remove the spare tire, jack, and tools from storage.
2. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug nuts by turning them to the left, one turn, while the wheel is still on the ground.

4. For the front axle, place the jack on the body flange just behind the front tire asindicated by the triangular lift point symbol on the sill molding. Do not raise the
vehicle until you are sure the jack is fully engaged.
5. For a rear tire, place the jack in the slot on the rear tie-down bracket, just forward of the rear tire (as indicated by the triangular lift point symbol on the sill molding).
Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is fully engaged.
6. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise. Raise the vehicle
only until the tire just clears the sur-
face and enough clearance is ob-
tained to install the spare tire. Mini-
mum tire lift provides maximum
stability.
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.
