sure of all tires on the trailer and your car. Low tire pressure canseriously affect the handling. Also check the spare tire.
7. The vehicle/trailer combination is more affected by crosswind andbuffeting. When being passed by a largevehicle, keep a constant speed and steer straight ahead. If there is too much wind buffeting slow downto get out of the other vehicle's air turbulence.
8. When parking your car and trailer, especially on a hill, be sure to fol-low all the normal precautions. Turn your front wheel into the curb, setthe parking brake firmly, and put the transaxle in 1st or Reverse (manual) or Park (automatic). Inaddition, place wheel chocks at each of the trailer's tires.

D060D01A-AAT 3. Loosen Wheel Nuts The wheel nuts should be loosened slightly before raising the car. To loosen the nuts, turn the wheel nut wrench handle counterclockwise. When doingthis, be sure that the socket is seated completely over the nut so it cannot slip off. For maximum leverage, posi-tion the wrench so the handle is to the right as shown in the drawing. Then, while holding the wrench near the endof the handle, pull up on it with steady pressure. Do not remove the nuts at this time. Just loosen them about one-half turn. D060E01A-AAT 4. Put the Jack in Place The base of the jack should be placed on firm, level ground. The jack should be positioned as shown in the drawing.
D060F02E-AAT 5. Raising the Car After inserting a wrench bar into the wheel nut wrench, install the wrench bar into the jack as shown in the draw- ing. To raise the vehicle, turn the wheelnut wrench clockwise. As the jack be- gins to raise the vehicle, double check that it is properly positioned and willnot slip. If the jack is on soft ground or sand, place a board, brick, flat stone or other object under the base of the jackto keep it from sinking. Raise the car high enough so that the fully inflated spare tire can be installed.To do this, you will need more ground clearance than is required to remove the flat tire.

Wheel and wheel covers may have sharp edges. Handle them carefully to avoid possible severe injury.Before putting the wheel into place, be sure that there is nothing on the hub or wheel (such as mud, tar,gravel, etc.) that interferes with the wheel from fitting solidly against the hub. If there is, remove it. Ifthere is not good contact on the mounting surface between the wheel and hub, the wheel nuts couldloosen and cause the loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel may result in loss of control of the vehicle. Thismay cause serious injury or death.
