WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY D050A01A-AAT D060A01A-AAT D060K02Y-AAT IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE If a tire goes flat while you are driving: 1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and let the car slow down while driving straight ahead. Do not apply the brakes immediately or attempt to pull off the road as this may cause a loss of control. When the car has slowed to such a speed that it is safe to do so, brake carefully and pull off the road. Drive off the road as far as possible and park on firm, level ground. If you are on a divided highway, do not park in the median area between the two traffic lanes. 2. When the car is stopped, turn on your emergency hazard flashers, set the parking brake and put the transaxle in "P" (automatic) or reverse (manual transaxle). 3. Have all passengers get out of the car. Be sure they all get out on the side of the car that is away from traffic. 4. Change the tire following the instructions provided on the following pages.

Wrap a piece of cloth around the tip of the wrench bar to avoid scratching. 2. Insert the wrench bar into the groove of the wheel cap and pry gently to remove the wheel cap. Groove Boss HGK196 3-4
