Jacking instructions
The jack is provided for emergency tyre
changing only.
To prevent the jack from "rattling" whilst
the vehicle is in motion, store it properly.
Follow jacking instructions to reduce the
possibility of personal injury.
Changing tyres
僅 Never attempt vehicle repairs in the
traffic lanes of a public road or high
-
way.
僅 Always move the vehicle completely
off the road and onto the shoulder
before trying to change a tyre. The
jack should be used on level firm
ground. If you cannot find a firm, level
place off the road, call a towing ser
-
vice company for assistance.
僅 Be sure to use the correct front and
rear jacking positions on the vehicle;
never use the bumpers or any other
part of the vehicle for jacking support.
僅 The vehicle can easily roll off the jack
causing serious injury or death.
僅 Do not get under a vehicle that is sup
-
ported by a jack.
僅 Do not start or run the engine whilst
the vehicle is on the jack.
僅 Do not allow anyone to remain in the
vehicle whilst it is on the jack.
僅 Make sure any children present are in
a secure place away from the road
and from the vehicle to be raised with
the jack.
Removing and storing the spare
tyre

-
terclockwise to remove.

To prevent the spare tyre and tools from
"rattling" whilst the vehicle is in motion,
store them properly.
Ensure the spare tyre retainer is properly
aligned with the centre of the spare tyre
to prevent the spare tyre from "rattling".
Otherwise, it may cause the spare tyre to
fall off the carrier and lead to an acci

dent.
