JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
— IF EQUIPPED
Warning!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the
side of the vehicle close to moving traffic.
Pull far enough off the road to avoid the
danger of being hit when operating the jack
or changing the wheel.
Being under a jacked-up vehicle is
dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the jack
and fall on you. You could be crushed. Never
put any 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 vehicle should be jacked on a
firm level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery
areas.
