Jacking Instructions
WARNING!
Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to help prevent personal injury or
damage to your vehicle:
• Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway aspossible before raising the vehicle.
• Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set an automatic transmission in PARK; a
manual transmission in REVERSE.
• Never start or run the engine with the vehicle on a jack.
• Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a jack. If you need to get under a
raised vehicle, take it to a service center where it can be raised on a lift.
• Only use the jack in the positions indicated and for lifting this vehicle during
a tire change.
• If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful of motor traffic.
• To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are securely stowed, spares must be
stowed with the valve stem facing the ground.
NOTE:
Refer to “Tires — General Information” in
“Starting And Operating” in the Owner’s
Manual on the DVD for further informa-
tion about the spare tire, it's use, and
operation.
1. Remove the scissors jack and lug wrench from the spare wheel as an
assembly. Turn the jack screw to the
left to loosen the lug wrench and re-
move the wrench from the jack as-
sembly.
NOTE:
The jack handle attaches to the side of the jack with two attachment points. When
the jack is partially expanded, the tension between the two attachment points holds
the jack handle in place.
