192 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
PREPARATIONS FOR JACKING
1. Park the vehicle on a firm level surface as far from
the edge of the roadway as possible. Avoid icy or
slippery areas.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning Flashers.
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. Place the gear selector into PARK (P) (automatic
transmission) or REVERSE (manual transmission).
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. Block both front and rear of the wheel diagonally
opposite of the jacking position. For example, if
changing the driver’s front tire, chock the
passenger’s rear wheel.
Wheel Blocked Example
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in the vehicle when the
vehicle is being lifted or raised.
JACK LOCATION/SPARE TIRE STOWAGE
The jack, tools, wheel chocks and spare tire are stowed
under the load floor behind the rear seat

1. Open the liftgate.
2. Lift the load floor handle, then lift access cover to
locate jack and tools.
Load Floor Handle
3. Remove the hook from the stowed position on the
back side of the load floor and place the hook over
the top body flange and weather seal. This will hold
the load floor up while obtaining the jack and spare
tire.
4. Remove the fastener securing the jack and spare tire.

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 being hit when operating the jack or
changing the wheel.
