Locking Lug Nuts — If Equipped
If your vehicle has optional anti-theft wheel
lu
g nuts, one on each wheel will lock the tires
and you must use a special key to unlock
them. This key will attach to the lug wrench.
Register them with the lock manufacturer by
fi
lling out the card provided in the glove
compartment and mailing it in the accompa
-
nying envelope. If you lose this key, contact
an
authorized dealer or use the lock manu-
facturer's order form, which is with the regis-
tration card.
Accessory wheel locks cannot be used on
s
t
eel wheels. This includes situations when
the spare tire is installed. If the spare tire is
installed, one of the original lug nuts (which
should still be in the vehicle) must be
installed in place of the wheel lock.

WARNING!
Being under a jacked-up vehicle is
dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the
jack and fall on you. You could be crushed.
Never get 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.

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.
