CHANGING TIRES
Jacking Instructions
The jack is provided for emergency tire
changing only. Follow jacking instruc-
tions to reduce the possibility of personal
injury.
WARNING - CHANGING
TIRES
• Never attempt vehicle repairs or
a tire change in the traffic lanes
of a public road or highway.
Always move the vehicle
completely off the road and
onto the shoulder before trying
to change a tire. If you cannot
find a firm, level place off the
road, call a towing service
company for assistance.
• Do not exceed the maximum
permissible load of the jack:
1,320 lbs. (600 kg).
• Be sure to use the correct front
or rear jacking positions on the
vehicle; never use the bumpers
or any other part of the vehicle
for jack support.
• Never allow any portion of your
body to get beneath the vehicle
while using the jack.
• Do not start or run the engine
while the vehicle is supported
by the jack.
