Changing tires
A vehicle can slip or roll off of a
jack causing serious injury or
death to you or those nearby.
Take the following safety pre-
cautions:

Do not get under a vehicle
that is supported by a jack.
•
NEVER attempt to change a
tire in the lane of traffic.

completely off the road on
level, firm ground away from

call a towing service for assis-
tance.
•
Be sure to use the jack pro-
vided with the vehicle.
