JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
Jack Location

and is held in place by a cable
winch mechanism.
Spare Tire Removal
• Fit the jack handle extension over the drive nut located in the rear cargoarea inside the vehicle. Use the lug wrench to rotate the nut
counterclockwise until the spare is on the ground with enough slack in
the cable to allow you to pull the tire out from under the vehicle.
• When the spare is clear, tilt theretainer at the end of the cable,
and pull it through the center of
the wheel.

Preparations For Jacking
1. Park the vehicle on a firm level surface as far from the edge of theroadway 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 (automatic transmission) or REVERSE (manual transmission).
5. Turn the ignition to the LOCK position.
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.
Jacking Instructions

the left one turn while the wheel
is still on the ground.

9. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at theend of the handle for increased leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star
pattern until each nut has been tightened twice. The correct wheel nut
tightness is 95 ft lb (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.
10. Lower the jack to it's fully closed position.
11. Secure the tire, jack, and tools in their proper locations.
12. Remove blocks from wheels.
Road Tire Installation
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
4. 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. The correct tightness of
each lug nut 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 service station.
5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to ensure that all lug nuts are properly seated against the wheel.
CAUTION!
• The winch mechanism is designed for use with the jack extensiontube only. Use of an air wrench or other power tools is not
recommended and they can damage the winch.
• Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on locations other than those indicated in the Jacking Instructions for this vehicle.
