Ckanging
a
Flat
Tire
If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel damage
by
driving slowly
to
a level place.
Turn
on
your hazard
warning flashers.
Changing
a
tire can cause an injury. The vehicle
can slip
off
the jack and roll over you or other
people. You and they could be badly injured.
Find
a
level place
to
change your tire.
To
help
prevent the vehicle from moving:
1.
Set the parking brake firmly.
2.
Put the shift lever in
PARK
(P).
3.
Turn off the engine.
To be even more certain the vehicle won't move,
you can put blocks
at
the front and rear of the
tire farthest
away
from the one being changed.
That would be the tire on the other side of the
vehicle, at the opposite end.
