Flat tires

If you have a flat tire while driving, never

brake suddenly; keep driving straight

ahead while gradually reducing speed.

Then slowly pull off the road to a safe

place.

¡

er possible, then stop the engine.

shift in the “P” (Park) position.

have everyone get out of the vehicle.

y

Do not jack up the vehicle on an

incline or a loose road surface.

The jack can come out of the jack-

ing point or sink into the ground

and this can result in a severe ac-

cident.

y

Use only the jack provided with

your vehicle. The jack supplied

with the vehicle is designed only

for changing a tire. Never get un-

der the vehicle while supporting

the vehicle with this jack.

y

Always turn off the engine before

raising the flat tire off the ground

using the jack. Never swing or

push the vehicle supported with

the jack. The jack can come out of

the jacking point due to a jolt and

this can result in a severe acci-

dent.
