If a tire goes at, avoid further tire and wheel damage
by driving slowly to a level place and stopping. Then
do this:
1. Turn on the hazard warning ashers. SeeHazard
Warning Flashers on page 3-5.
2. Park your vehicle. If your vehicle has an automatic
transmission, set the parking brake rmly and put
the shift lever in P (Park). SeeShifting Into
Park (Automatic Transmission) on page 2-24.If
your vehicle has a manual transmission, move the
shift lever to R (Reverse) and set the parking
brake rmly. SeeParking the Vehicle (Manual
Transmission) on page 2-26for additional
information.
3. Turn off the engine.
4. Inspect the at tire.
If the tire has been separated from the wheel, has
damaged sidewalls, or has a puncture larger than a
14inch (6 mm), the tire is too severely damaged for the
tire sealant and compressor kit to be effective. See
Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-6.
If the tire has a puncture less than a
14inch (6 mm) in
the tread area of the tire, seeTire Sealant and
Compressor Kit (Without Selector Switch) on page 5-71
orTire Sealant and Compressor Kit (With Selector
Switch) on page 5-80.

If the vehicle has the tire sealant and compressor kit
shown above, follow the operating instructions
under “Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit (With Selector

{CAUTION:
Idling a vehicle in an enclosed area with poor
ventilation is dangerous. Engine exhaust may
enter the vehicle. Engine exhaust contains Carbon
Monoxide (CO) which cannot be seen or smelled.
It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
Never run the engine in an enclosed area that has
no fresh air ventilation. For more information, see
Engine Exhaust on page 2-27.
{CAUTION:
Over-inating a tire could cause the tire to rupture
and you or others could be injured. Be sure to
read and follow the tire sealant and compressor kit
instructions and inate the tire to its recommended

the Vehicle Certication and Service Parts labels and
the certicates of title and registration.
Engine Identication
The eighth character in the VIN is the engine code. This
code helps identify the vehicle’s engine, specications,
and replacement parts. See “Engine Specications”
underCapacities and Specifications on page 5-104for
your vehicle’s engine code.
Service Parts Identication Label
This label is on the inside of the glove box. It is
very helpful if you ever need to order parts. The label
has the following information:
Vehicle Identication Number (VIN)
Model designation
Paint information
Production options and special equipment
Do not remove this label from the vehicle.
Electrical System
Add-On Electrical Equipment
Notice:Do not add anything electrical to the
vehicle unless you check with your dealer/retailer
