5. Raising the vehicle
After inserting the wrench bar into the
wheel nut wrench, install the wrench bar
into the jack as shown in the drawing.
To raise the vehicle, turn the wheel nut
wrench clockwise. As the jack begins
to raise the vehicle, double check that
it is properly positioned 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.
WARNING:
Do not get under the vehicle when it
is supported by the jack! This is very
dangerous as the vehicle could fall
and cause serious injury or death.
No one should stay in the vehicle
while the jack is being used.

6. Changing Wheels
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove
them. Slide the wheel off the studs and
lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To put
the wheel on the hub, pick up the spare
tire, line up the holes with the studs and
slide the wheel onto them. If this is
difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get
the top hole in the wheel lined up with
the top stud. Then jiggle the wheel back
and forth until the wheel can be slid over
the other studs.
