Before changing a tyre, first stop your vehicle
in a safe, flat location.
1. Park the vehicle on level and stable
ground, free of loose pebbles, etc.
2. Set the Electric parking brake.
3. Put the select position in the “P” (PARK)
position and stop the Hybrid EV System.
4. Turn on the hazard flashers and set up a
warning triangle, flashing signal lamp,
etc., at an adequate distance from the
vehicle, and have all your passengers
leave the vehicle.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when
jacking up the vehicle, place chocks or
blocks (A) at the tyre that is diagonally
opposite from the tyre (B) you are chang-
ing.
6. Get the jack, jack bar and wheel nut
wrench ready.
Refer to “Tools and jack” on page 8-6.

1. Loosen the wheel nuts a quarter turn with
the wheel nut wrench. Do not remove the
wheel nuts yet.
2. Place the jack under one of the jacking
points (A) shown in the illustration. Use
the jacking point closest to the tyre you
wish to change.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage
sustained through re-use of any tyre in which
tyre sealant has been used.
After using the tyre sealant, replace the valve
with a new one.
How to change a tyre
Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.
If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.
The chocks shown in the illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you keep ones in the vehicle for use if
needed.
If chocks are not available, use stones or any
other objects that are large enough to hold
the wheel in position.
