JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
Jack Location
• The scissor-type jack and tire changing tools are located in the cargo compartment
behind the rear seat underneath the load floor.
Spare Tire Stowage
• The spare tire is stowed underneath the rear cargo load floor behind the rear seat
along with the jack and wheel chocks.
Preparations For Jacking
1. Park the vehicle on a firm level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as
possible. Avoid icy or slippery areas.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Place the shift lever into PARK.
5. Turn the ignition to the OFF position.
Chock both the front and rear of the
wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking

hicle when the vehicle is being jacked.

9. Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle and install lug bolts with the
cone-shaped end toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the bolts.
10. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw to the left, and remove the jack.
11. Finish tightening the lug bolts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the
handle for increased leverage. Tighten the lug bolts in a star pattern until each
nut has been tightened twice. The correct wheel bolt tightness is 100 ft lb
(135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at a service station.
12. Lower the jack to it's fully closed position.
13. Secure the tire, jack, and tools in their proper locations.
14. Remove chocks from wheels.
Road Tire Installation

2. Install the remaining lug bolts with the threaded end of the bolt toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the lug bolts.
3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
4. Finish tightening the lug bolts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the
handle for increased leverage. Tighten the lug bolts in a star pattern until each
bolt has been tightened twice. The correct tightness of each lug bolt is 100 ft/lbs
(135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or service station.
5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug bolt torque with a torque wrench to ensure
that all lug bolts are properly seated against the wheel.
