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.
Be cautious as the minimum ground
clearance gets lower when you
store the original tyre in the bottom
of the vehicle after replacing it with
a spare tyre.
In particular, drive below 30 km/h
(18 mph) when driving over a speed
bump and on uphill/downhill/uneven
road.
Changing tyres
䳜 Never attempt vehicle repairs in
the traffic lanes of a public road
or highway.
䳜 Always move the vehicle com
-
pletely off the road and onto the
shoulder before trying to change
a tyre. The jack should be used on
firm level ground. If you cannot
find a firm level place off the road,
call a towing service company for
assistance.
䳜 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.
䳜 The vehicle can roll off the jack
causing serious injury or death.
䳜 Do not get under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.
