318 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
3. Place the wrench on the jack screw and turn
clockwise until the jack head is properly
engaged in the described location. Do not
raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack
is securely engaged.
4. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw
clockwise, using the swivel wrench. Raise
the vehicle only until the tire just clears the
surface and enough clearance is obtained
to install the compact spare tire. Minimum
tire lift provides maximum stability.
5. Remove the wheel lug nuts, for vehicles
with wheel covers, remove the cover from
the wheel by hand. Do not pry the wheel
cover off. Then pull the wheel off the hub.
6. Install the inflatable spare on the vehicle,
located in the rear cargo area of the vehicle.
Mounting Inflatable Spare Tire
NOTE:
Do not install the wheel cover on the inflatable
spare tire.
7. Leave the vehicle on the jack and start
inflating the inflatable spare after the tire
has been mounted to the vehicle. Secure
the wheel to the hub by tightening the nuts
with the wrench. After inflation, once the
vehicle is lowered you will have a second
opportunity to “torque” the lug nuts.
8. Inflate the tire to the prescribed pressure
60 psi (4.2 Bar) using the Portable Air
Compressor or Tire Service Kit if equipped.
Refer to “Portable Air Compressor” in this
section for usage procedure if equipped.
Refer to “Tire Service Kit For Inflating Tire”
in this section for usage procedure if
equipped.
9. Lower the vehicle once the inflatable Spare
has reached its pressure and the
compressor-hose has been removed from
the tire valve.
WARNING!
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.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the
jack, do not tighten the wheel nuts fully until
the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to
follow this warning may result in serious
injury.
CAUTION!
Be sure to mount the inflatable spare tire with
the valve stem facing outward. The vehicle
could be damaged if the inflatable spare tire
is mounted incorrectly.
