warning light Ram ProMaster City 2018 Owner's Guide

5. Rotate the winch mechanism clockwiseuntil the wheel is properly stowed under
the vehicle and until the wench makes
three audible noises.
6. Reach underneath and shake tire by hand to confirm that it is secure. The tire should
not move. If the tire is still loose and/or
three audible noises are not heard, place
and secure damaged wheel into the ve-
hicle and seek dealer assistance for the
winch mechanism.
This is for temporary use only.
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel
Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. To ease the installation process for steel wheels with wheel covers, install two
wheel bolts on the wheel. Install the wheel
bolts with the threaded end of the bolt
toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the
wheel bolts. 3. Align the valve notch in the wheel cover
with the valve stem on the wheel. Install
the cover by hand, snapping the cover
over the two wheel bolts. Do not use a
hammer or excessive force to install the
cover.
4. Install the remaining wheel bolts with the threaded end of the wheel bolt toward the
wheel. Lightly tighten the wheel bolts.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off
the jack, do not fully tighten the wheel
bolts until the vehicle has been lowered.
Failure to follow this warning may result in
serious injury.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
6. Finish tightening the wheel bolts. Push down on the wrench while holding at the
end of the handle for increased leverage.
Tighten the wheel bolts in a star pattern
until each wheel bolt has been tightened
twice. Refer to “Torque Specifications” in
“Technical Specifications” for correct
wheel bolt torque.
7. After 25 miles (40 km) check the wheel bolt torque with a torque wrench to ensure
that all wheel bolts are properly seated
against the wheel.

NOTE:
Replace the sealant canister prior to the
expiration date at your authorized dealer.
WARNING!
Store the sealant canister in its special
compartment, away from sources of heat.
Failure to follow this WARNING may result
in sealant canister rupture and serious
injury or death.
JUMP STARTING
If 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.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump starting if the battery
is frozen. It could rupture or explode and
cause personal injury.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack
or any other booster source with a system
voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to
the battery, starter motor, alternator or
electrical system may occur.
Preparations For Jump Starting
The battery in your vehicle is located in the
front of the engine compartment, behind the
left headlight assembly.
NOTE:
The positive battery post is covered with a
protective cap. Lift up on the cap to gain
access to the positive battery post.

Tread Wear Indicators
Tread wear indicators are in the original
equipment tires to help you in determining
when your tires should be replaced.
These indicators are molded into the bottom
of the tread grooves. They will appear as
bands when the tread depth becomes a
1/16 of an inch (1.6 mm). When the tread is
worn to the tread wear indicators, the tire
should be replaced. Refer to “Replacement
Tires” in this section for further information.
Life Of Tire
The service life of a tire is dependent upon
varying factors including, but not limited to:• Driving style.
• Tire pressure - Improper cold tire inflation
pressures can cause uneven wear patterns
to develop across the tire tread. These ab-
normal wear patterns will reduce tread life,
resulting in the need for earlier tire replace-
ment.
• Distance driven.
• Performance tires, tires with a speed rating of V or higher, and Summer tires typically
have a reduced tread life. Rotation of these
tires per the vehicle scheduled mainte-
nance is highly recommended.
WARNING!
Tires and the spare tire should be replaced
after six years, regardless of the remaining
tread. Failure to follow this warning can
result in sudden tire failure. You could lose
control and have a collision resulting in
serious injury or death.
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place
with as little exposure to light as possible.
Protect tires from contact with oil, grease,
and gasoline.
Replacement Tires
The tires on your new vehicle provide a bal-
ance of many characteristics. They should be
inspected regularly for wear and correct cold
tire inflation pressures. The manufacturer
strongly recommends that you use tires
equivalent to the originals in size, quality and
performance when replacement is needed.
Refer to the paragraph on “Tread Wear Indi-
cators” in this section. Refer to the Tire and
Loading Information placard or the Vehicle
Certification Label for the size designation of
your tire. The Load Index and Speed Symbol
for your tire will be found on the original
equipment tire sidewall.
See the Tire Sizing Chart example found in
the “Tire Safety Information” section of this
manual for more information relating to the
Load Index and Speed Symbol of a tire.
It is recommended to replace the two front
tires or two rear tires as a pair. Replacing just
one tire can seriously affect your vehicle’s
handling. If you ever replace a wheel, make
sure that the wheel’s specifications match
those of the original wheels.
