3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.

tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by your authorized
dealer or service station.

part of your body under a vehicle that 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.
• Never start or run the engine while the vehicle is on a jack.
• The jack is designed to be used as a tool for changing tires only. The jack should not be used to lift the vehicle for service purposes. The
