Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does
not block traffi c: the ground must be
level, stable and non-slippery.
Apply the handbrake, switch off the
ignition and engage fi rst gear * to
lock the wheels.
If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be changed.
It is imperative that you ensure that
the occupants get out of the vehicle
and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle
raised using a jack; use an axle
stand.
