CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the
temperature gauge reads 240°F (116 °C) or greater pull over and stop
the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until the
pointer drops back into the normal range 200–230°F (93–110°C). If
the pointer remains at 240°F (116°C) or greater and you hear a chime,
turn the engine off immediately and call for service.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze)
or steam from your radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from
under the hood, do not open the hood until the radiator has had time
to cool. Never try to open a cooling system pressure cap when the
radiator or coolant bottle is hot.
JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
Jack Location
• The jack and lug wrench are located in the rear storage compartment.
NOTE:Turn the black plastic wing nut counter clockwise to loosen the jack
from the storage bin.
Spare Tire Stowage
• To remove the spare tire from the carrier, remove the tire cover, if
equipped, and remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench turning them
counterclockwise.
NOTE:If you have added aftermarket accessories to the spare tire mounted
carrier, it cannot exceed a gross weight of 70 lbs (32 kg) including the
weight of the spare tire.

Preparations For Jacking
1. Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Shift the automatic transmission into PARK, or a manual transmission
into REVERSE.
5. Turn the ignition to LOCK.
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
1. Remove the spare tire, jack and
tools from the stored location.
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.
3. Assemble the jack and jacking
tools. Connect the jack handle
driver to the extension, then to
the lug wrench.

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!
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on locations other than
those indicated in the Jacking Instructions for this vehicle.
WARNING!
• Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to
moving traffic. 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.
• Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to help prevent
personal injury or damage to your vehicle:
• Alwayspark on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the
roadway as possible before raising the vehicle.
• Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set an automatic transmission in
PARK; a manual transmission in REVERSE.
• 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.
• 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.
