spare wheel JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2010 Owner handbook (in English)

5. For a rear tire, place the jack and protective
cap 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 surface and enough clearance is
obtained to install the spare tire. Minimum 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.7. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.
8. Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle
and install the lug nuts with the cone-shaped
end toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the nuts.
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the
jack, do not tighten the nuts fully until the
vehicle has been lowered.
9. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw
counterclockwise, and remove the jack and
wheel blocks.
10. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down
on the wrench while tightening for increased
leverage. Alternate nuts until each nut has
been tightened twice. The correct wheel nut
tightness is 95 ft lbs (130 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.
11. Lower the jack to the fully closed position
and return it and the tools to the proper posi-
tions in the foam tray.

the cargo area.
13. Have the aluminum road wheel and tire
repaired as soon as possible and properly
secure the spare tire, jack and tool kit.
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.
JUMP-STARTINGIf your vehicle has a discharged battery it can
be jump-started using a set of jumper cables
and a battery in another vehicle or by using a
portable battery booster pack. Jump-starting
can be dangerous if done improperly so please
follow the procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack
follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or
any other booster source with a system volt-
age greater than 12 Volts or damage to the
battery, starter motor, alternator or electrical
system may occur.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump-starting if the battery is
frozen. It could rupture or explode and cause
personal injury.
Preparations for Jump-StartThe battery in your vehicle is located under the
passenger’s front seat. There are remote loca-
tions located under the hood to assist in jump-
starting.
