■ Using the tire jack
Observe the following precautions.
Improper use of the tire jack may cause
the vehicle to suddenly fall off the jack,
leading to death or serious injury.
● Do not use the tire jack for any pur-
pose other than replacing tires or
installing and removing tire chains.
● Only use the tire jack that comes with
this vehicle for replacing a flat tire.
Do not use it on other vehicles, and do
not use other tire jacks for replacing
tires on this vehicle.
● Put the jack properly in its jack point.
● Be sure to turn off the AHC and stop
the hybrid system. (P.441)
● Do not put any part of your body under
the vehicle while it is supported by the
jack.
● Do not start the hybrid system or drive
the vehicle while the vehicle is sup-
ported by the jack.
● Do not raise the vehicle while some-
one is inside.
● When raising the vehicle, do not put an
object on or under the jack.
● Do not raise the vehicle to a height
greater than that required to replace
the tire.
● Do not continue jacking up once the
yellow caution line has appeared.
● Use a jack stand if it is necessary to get
under the vehicle.
Take particular care when lowering the
vehicle to ensure that no one working on
or near the vehicle will be injured.
■ Using the jack handle
Tighten all the jack handle bolts securely
using the wheel nut wrench, to prevent
the extension parts from coming apart
unexpectedly.
