LOCATION OF SPARE
TIRE AND TOOLS
The jack and tools
are either under the
carpeted floorboard

the cargo area
behind an access
panel. The spare tire
is under the rear
of the vehicle. For
more information,
please consult your

TIRE PRESSURE
Safe operation of
your Mariner requires
your tires to be
properly inflated.
The recommended
inflation pressure
is found on the
tire label or the
certification label on
the driver’s door.
At least once a
month and before
long trips, inspect
each tire and check
the air pressure with
a tire gauge. Don’t
forget the spare.
Air pressure should
be checked when
the tires are cold.
CHANGING THE TIRES
If you get a flat tire
while driving, do not
apply the brake
heavily. Instead,
gradually decrease
your speed. Hold the
steering wheel firmly
and slowly move to a
safe place onto the
side of the road.
Your vehicle is
equipped with a
temporary spare tire,
which is smaller
than a regular tire,
and is designed for
emergency use only.
