2.5.1 Jacking
Position the jack at the correct jacking point (under the front chassis cross
member). Make sure the jack is positioned on a level and solid place. Ensure no one
is in the vehicle.
Block the wheel diagonally opposite the flat tire to keep the vehicle from rolling when
it is jacked up. When blocking the wheel, place a wheel block in front of one of the
front wheels or behind one of the rear wheels.
Open the jack extension as shown and slide the lock to keep the handle straight. To
raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle end along with the extension into the jack and
turn it clockwise with the jack handle. As the jack touches the vehicle and begins to
lift, check that it is properly positioned. Raise it high enough so that the spare tire
can be installed. Remember you will need more ground clearance when putting on
the spare tire than when removing the flat tire.

Make sure to set the jack properly in the jacking point. Raising the vehicle with
improperly positioned jack will damage the underbody of vehicle or may allow
the vehicle to fall off the jack and cause personal injury.
• Use the jack only for lifting your vehicle during wheel changing
• Do not raise the jack with someone in the vehicle.
