emergency flashers.

personal injury may occur.
Do not start or run the engine
while your vehicle is supported

vehicle or may allow the ve-

cause personal injury.
Never get under the vehicle
when the vehicle is supported
by the jack alone.
Use the jack only for lifting
your vehicle during wheel
changing.
Do not raise the vehicle with
someone in the vehicle.
When raising the vehicle, do
not place any objects on top
of or underneath the jack.
Raise the vehicle only high
enough to remove and change
the tire.

Do not continue driving with a
deflated tire. Driving even a
