Practical hints

Flat tire

Lifting the vehicle

왘 Prevent the vehicle from rolling away

by blocking wheels with wheel chocks

or other sizable objects.

One wheel chock is included with the

vehicle tool kit (

컄 page 378).

When changing wheel on a level surface:

왘 Place the wheel chock in front of and

another sizable object behind the

wheel that is diagonally opposite to the

wheel being changed.

When changing wheel on a hill:

왘 Place the wheel chock and another

sizable object on the downhill side

blocking both wheels of the other axle.

왘 On wheel to be changed, loosen but do

not yet remove the wheel bolts

(approximately one full turn with

wrench).

Warning! G

The jack is designed exclusively for jacking

up the vehicle at the jack take-up brackets

built into both sides of the vehicle. To help

avoid personal injury, use the jack only to lift

the vehicle during a wheel change. Never

get beneath the vehicle while it is supported

by the jack. Keep hands and feet away from

the area under the lifted vehicle. Always

firmly set parking brake and block wheels

before raising vehicle with jack.

Do not disengage parking brake while the

vehicle is raised. Be certain that the jack is

always vertical (plumb line) when in use,

especially on hills. Always try to use the jack

on level surface. Make sure the jack arm is

fully seated in the jack take-up bracket. Al-

ways lower the vehicle onto sufficient ca-

pacity jackstands before working under the

vehicle.
