N00836900763
Before changing a tire, first stop your vehicle in a safe, flat
location.
1. Park the vehicle on level and stable ground.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. On vehicles with manual transaxle, turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position, and move the gearshift
lever to the “R” (Reverse) position.
On vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, move the gearshift
lever to the “P” (PARK) position, and turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position.
4. Turn on the hazard flashers and set up a warning triangle,
flashing signal light, etc., at an adequate distance from the
vehicle, and have all your passengers leave the vehicle.5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when it is raised on the
jack, place chocks or blocks (A) at the tire that is diago-
nally opposite from the tire (B) you are changing.

The jack should not be used for any purpose other

the jack.

while jacked up, the jack could slip out of position,
leading to an accident.

Stop jacking up the vehicle as soon as the tire is
raised off the ground. It is dangerous to raise the
vehicle any higher.

your body under the vehicle while it is supported by
the jack.
Do not bump the raised vehicle or leave it sitting on
the jack for a long time. Both are very dangerous.
Do not use a jack except the one that came with your
vehicle.
