Subaru Forester: What to do in an emergency / If you have a flat tire (with spare tire)

• Driving on a flat or severely under-inflated tire inflicts irreversible internal structural damage to the casing. Attempting to reinflate a tire after operating it under extreme pressure loss can trigger a sudden sidewall blowout and a catastrophic loss of control. Never attempt to reinflate a tire that has been driven while flat; replace the damaged tire immediately with the spare wheel assembly.

• Changing a wheel on the roadside carries inherent physical hazards. To minimize the risk of severe personal injury or fatal accidents, rigorously follow every safety precaution and procedure detailed in this section when replacing a wheel on your Kia Telluride.

When handling or operating the extension jack handle, exercise caution around its flat end to avoid contact with sharp metal edges that could cause hand cuts or injuries.
