WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRED050A02A-AATIf a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the car slow down while
driving straight ahead. Do not apply
the brakes immediately or attempt to
pull off the road as this may cause a
loss of control. When the vehicle has
slowed to such a speed that it is safe
to do so, brake carefully and pull off
the road. Drive off the road as far as
possible and park on firm, level
ground. If you are on a divided high-
way, do not park in the median area
between the two traffic lanes.
2. When the car is stopped, turn on your
emergency hazard flashers, set the
parking brake and put the transaxle
in "P" (automatic) or reverse (manual
transaxle).
3. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on
the side of the vehicle that is away
from traffic.
4. Change the tire following the instruc-
tions provided on the following pages.
HJM4008
4. Turn the installation bolt counter-
clockwise with a wheel nut wrench to
remove the spare tire. After replac-
ing the spare tire, install and tighten
the bolt firmly with your fingers until
there is no more play in the spare tire.

The base of the jack should be placed
on firm, level ground. The jack should
be positioned as shown in the drawing.
HJM4010 D060D01A-AAT
3. Loosen Wheel Nuts
The wheel nuts should be loosened
slightly before raising the car. To loosen
the nuts, turn the wrench handle coun-
terclockwise. When doing this, be sure
that the socket is seated completely
over the nut so it cannot slip off. For
maximum leverage, position the wrench
so the handle is to the left as shown in
the drawing. Then, while holding the
wrench near the end of the handle, push
down on it with steady pressure. Do not
remove the nuts at this time. Just
loosen them about one-half turn.

D060C02A-AAT2. Block the Wheel
Block the wheel that is diagonally oppo-
site from the flat to keep the vehicle
from rolling when the vehicle is raised
on the jack.

D060F03E-AAT5. Raising the vehicle
After inserting the wrench bar into the
wheel nut wrench, install the wrench bar
into the jack as shown in the drawing.
To raise the vehicle, turn the wheel nut
wrench clockwise. As the jack begins
to raise the vehicle, double check that
it is properly positioned and will not slip.
If the jack is on soft ground or sand,
place a board, brick, flat stone or other
object under the base of the jack to
keep it from sinking.

!
Raise the car high enough so that the
fully inflated spare tire can be installed.
To do this, you will need more ground
clearance than is required to remove
the flat tire.
WARNING:
Do not get under the vehicle when it
is supported by the jack! This is very
dangerous as the vehicle could fall
and cause serious injury or death.
No one should stay in the vehicle
while the jack is being used.
D060G01JM-AAT6. Changing Wheels
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove
them. Slide the wheel off the studs and
lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To put
the wheel on the hub, pick up the spare
tire, line up the holes with the studs and
slide the wheel onto them. If this is
difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get
the top hole in the wheel lined up with
the top stud. Then jiggle the wheel back
and forth until the wheel can be slid over
the other studs.

D060I01E-AAT8. Lower Vehicle and Tighten Nuts
Lower the car to the ground by turning
the wheel nut wrench counterclock-
wise. Then position the wrench as shown
in the drawing and tighten the wheel
nuts. Be sure the socket is seated
completely over the nut. Do not stand
on the wrench handle or use an exten-
sion pipe over the wrench handle.
Go around the wheel tightening every
other nut until they are all tight. Then
double-check each nut for tightness.
HJM4016
After changing wheels, have a techni-
cian tighten the wheel nuts to their
proper torque as soon as possible.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
Steel wheel & aluminium alloy wheel:
65-80 lb.ft (900-1,100 kg.cm)
D060J02O-AATAfter Changing Wheels
If you have a tire gauge, remove the
valve cap and check the air pressure. If
the pressure is lower than recom-
mended, drive slowly to the nearest
service station and inflate to the correct
pressure. If it is too high, adjust it until
it is correct. Always reinstall the valve
cap after checking or adjusting tire
pressure. If the cap is not replaced, air
may leak from the tire. If you lose a
valve cap, buy another and install it as
soon as possible.

WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the radiator
hose when adding the engine oil as it may
be hot enough to burn you.
!
CHANGING THE OIL AND FIL-
TER
If the oil level is close to or below the "L"
mark, add oil until it reaches the "F" mark.
To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it
counter-clockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do
not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clockwise.
The distance between the "F" and "L" marks
is equal to about 1 quart of oil.The engine oil and filter should be changed
at those intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule in Section 5. If the car is
being driven in severe conditions, more
frequent oil and filter changes are required.
The procedure for changing the oil and
filter is as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set the
parking brake. Start the engine and let
it warm up until the needle on the cool-
ant temperature gauge moves above
the lowest mark. Turn the engine off and
place the gear selector lever in "P" (au-
tomatic) or reverse gear (manual
transaxle).G030D01JM-AATAdding Oil

WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine
coolant temperature and may some-
times operate even when the engine is
not running. Use extreme caution when
working near the blades of the coolant
fan so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant
temperature decreases, the fan will au-
tomatically shut off. This is a normal
condition. 2. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise
without pressing down on it, until it stops.
This relieves any pressure remaining in
the cooling system. And remove the
radiator cap by pushing down and turn-
ing counterclockwise.
3. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place.
Open the drain cock on the radiator.
Allow all the engine coolant to drain
from the cooling system, then securely
close the drain cock.
4. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the
cooling system in your car. Then, fol-
lowing the manufacturer's directions on
the engine coolant container, add the
appropriate quantity of coolant to the
radiator.
5. Fill the radiator with clean demineral-
ized or distilled water. Continue to add
clean demineralized or distilled water
in small quantities until the fluid level
stays up in the radiator neck.6. Start the engine, top off the radiator with
water and then add coolant to the res-
ervoir until the level is between "L" and
"F".
7. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps
and check to be sure the drain cocks are
fully closed and not leaking.
G050D02A-AATTo Change the Engine CoolantThe engine coolant should be changed at
those intervals specified in the vehicle
maintenance schedule in Section 5.
