Tire Change Procedure WARNING:
When one of the front
wheels is off the ground, the transmission
alone will not prevent the vehicle from
moving or slipping off the jack, even if the
transmission is in park (P). WARNING:
Do not attempt to
change a tire on the side of the vehicle
close to moving traffic. Pull far enough off
the road to avoid the danger of being hit
when operating the jack or changing the
wheel. WARNING:
To help prevent your
vehicle from moving when changing a
wheel, shift the transmission into park (P),
set the parking brake and use an
appropriate block or wheel chock to secure
the wheel diagonally opposite to the wheel
being changed. For example, when
changing the front left wheel, place an
appropriate block or wheel chock on the
right rear wheel. WARNING:
Do not get under a
vehicle that is only supported by a vehicle
jack.
