Vehicle Care
8. Attach the jack handle,
extension, and wheel wrench to
the jack and place it (with the
wheel blocks) under the vehicle
toward the front of the rear
bumper.
9. Position the centre lift point of
the jack under the centre of the
spare tyre.
10. Turn the wrench clockwise to
raise the jack until it lifts the
end fitting.
11. Continue raising the jack until
the spare tyre stops moving
upward and is held firmly in
place. The secondary latch has
released and the spare tyre is
balancing on the jack.
12. Lower the jack by turning the
wheel wrench anticlockwise.
Keep lowering the jack until the
spare tyre slides off the jack or
is hanging by the cable.

Warning
Someone standing too close
during the procedure could be
injured by the jack. If the spare
tyre does not slide off the jack
completely, make sure no one is
behind you or on either side of
you as you pull the jack out from
under the spare.
13. Disconnect the jack handle
from the jack and carefully
remove the jack. Use one hand
to push against the spare while
firmly pulling the jack out from
under the spare tyre with the
other hand.
If the spare tyre is hanging
from the cable, insert the hoist
end of extension, and wheel
wrench into the hoist shaft hole
in the bumper and turn the
wheel wrench anticlockwise to
lower the spare the rest of
the way.
14. Turn the wheel wrench in the
hoist shaft hole in the bumper
clockwise to raise the cable
back up if the cable is hanging
under the vehicle.
Have the hoist assembly inspected
as soon as you can. You will not be
able to store a spare or flat tyre
using the hoist assembly until it has
been inspected and/or replaced.
