!
WARNING:
Do not get under the car when it is
supported by the jack! This is very
dangerous as the jack could fall and
cause serious injury or death. No
one should stay in the car while the
jack is being used.

5. Raising the Car
After inserting a bar into the wheel nut
wrench, install the bar into the jack as
shown in the drawing. To raise the
vehicle, turn the jack handle clockwise.
As the jack begins to raise the vehicle,
double check that it is properly posi-
tioned and will not slip. If the jack is on
soft ground or sand, place a board,
brick, flat stone or other object under
the base of the jack to keep it from
sinking.

Raise the car high enough so that the
fully inflated spare tire can be installed.
To do this, you will need more ground
clearance than is required to remove
the flat tire.
