WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES 209 WARNING! Remove the gas cap slowly to prevent fuel spray from the filler neck which may cause injury. The volatility of present gasolines may cause a build up of pressure in the fuel tank that may increase while you drive. This pressure can result in a spray of gasoline and/or vapors when you remove the cap from a hot vehicle. Removing the cap slowly allows the pressure to vent and prevents fuel spray. Never allow any lit smoking materials near the vehicles while removing the cap or filling the tank. Never add fuel to the vehicle when the engine is running. CHANGING A FLAT TIRE Jack Location The jack, jack drive tube, 2 tube extensions, and wheel wrench are located behind the seat on the passenger's side of the vehicle. WARNING! The jack is designed as a tool for changing tires only. The jack should not be used to lift the vehicle for service purposes, unless suitable supports are placed under the vehicle as a safety measure. The vehicle should be jacked on a firm level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas. • In the Regular Cab the jack and tools are stowed under a formation in the carpet behind the passenger seat. • In the Quad Cab the jack and tools are stowed under the rear seat. Lift the passenger side rear seat cushion to gain access to this area. 6
