• Raise the vehicle only high enough to remove and change
the wheel
• Usable extended height of jack is up to the yellow line/mark.
Do not raise the jack above the yellow line.
• Follow jacking instructions
• Do not start or run the engine while your vehicle is
supported by the jack
Never get under the vehicle when the vehicle is supported by
the jack alone.
Remove the wheel nuts. Lift the flat tyre straight off and place it
aside. Roll the spare wheel into position and align the holes in the
wheel with the bolts. Lift up the wheel and get at least the top bolt
started through its hole. Wiggle the wheel and press it back over
the other bolts.
Re-install the wheel nuts with the tapered end inward and tighten by
hand. Press the wheel inward and tighten the wheel nuts further.
Never use oil or grease on the bolts or nuts. Doing so may lead
to over tightening of the nuts, wheel nut spanner slip, damage
the bolts and also may cause personal injuries. Also, nuts may
loosen and the wheels may fall off, which could cause a serious
accident. If there is oil or grease on any bolt or nut, clean before
installing wheel nuts.
Lower the vehicle completely and tighten the diagonally opposite
wheel nuts using the wheel nut spanner. Turn the jack handle
extension counter clockwise using the jack handle to lower the
vehicle, making sure the handle remains firmly fitted onto the jack
handle extension. Make sure the wheel spanner is securely
engaged over the nut. Tighten each nut a little at a time in the
diagonally opposite order as shown. Repeat the process until all the
nuts are tight. Do not use other tools or any additional leverage
other than your hands, such as a hammer, pipe or your foot.
