IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 159
(Continued)
Spare Tire Storage
Rotate the jack wrench tool clockwise on the
winch drive nut (The flat tire must not be
connected to the winch) until effort becomes
heavy and an audible click is heard indicating
the winch is properly stowed.
Wrench Rotation
Cover the flat tire with the Emergency Spare Tire
Bag (If equipped) and stow the flat tire into the
cargo area.
NOTE:
The winch mechanism is designed for use with
the extension tube only. Use of an air wrench or
other power tools is not recommended and can
damage the winch.
TIRE SERVICE KIT
If a tire is punctured, you can make a first emer-
gency repair using the Tire Service Kit located in
the rear storage area under the cargo floor.
Tire Service Kit Components
Tire punctures of up to 1/4 of an inch (6mm)
can be repaired; the kit can be used in all
weather conditions. Do not remove the
foreign object from the punctured tire, i.e.,
screw or nail.
Remove the Tire Service Kit from the vehicle,
take it out from the bag and place it near the
punctured tire. Screw the clear flexible filling
tube to the tire valve.

vehicle closest to traffic. Pull far enough off
the road to avoid the danger of being hit
when using the Tire Service Kit.

under the following circumstances:
If the puncture in the tire tread is
approximately 1/4 inch (6 mm) or
larger.
