Never attempt vehicle repairs in the traffic lanes of a public
road or highway.

be used on firm level ground.
If you cannot find a firm level
place off the road, call a tow-

assistance.

tions on the vehicle; never
use the bumpers or any other

not remove any nut until the tyre
has been raised off the ground. 8. Place the jack at the front or rear
jacking position closest to the tyre
you are changing. Place the jackat the designated locations under
the frame. The jacking positions
are plates welded to the frame
with two tabs and a raised dot to
index with the jack. 9. Insert the jack handle into the jack
and turn it clockwise, raising the
vehicle until the tyre just clears the
ground. This measurement is
approximately 30 mm (1.2 in).
Before removing the wheel nuts,
make sure the vehicle is stable
and that there is no chance for
movement or slippage.

To reduce the possibility of
injury, be sure to use only the
jack provided with the vehicle
and in the correct jack position;
never use any other part of the
vehicle for jack support.
