CAUTION
l
When removing the tyre hanger from the
hook or hanging it back on the hook, hold
the tyre hanger carefully so that it does not
drop on your feet.
NOTE
l
Put the spare wheel under the vehicle body
near the jack. This makes it safer if the jack
slips out of position.

1.
On vehicles with wheel covers, first re-
move the covers (refer to “Wheel cov-
ers” on page 8-13).
Then loosen the wheel nuts a quarter
turn with the wheel nut wrench. Do not
remove the wheel nuts yet.
2. Place the jack under one of the jacking
points (A) shown in the illustration. Use
the jacking point closest to the tyre you
wish to change.
WARNING
l
Set the jack only at the positions shown
here. If the jack is set at a wrong position,
it could dent your vehicle or the jack
might fall over and cause personal injury.
l
Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft sur-
face.
Otherwise, the jack might slip and cause
personal injury. Always use the jack on a
flat, hard surface. Before setting the jack,
make sure there are no sand or pebbles
under the jack base.
3. Rotate the jack by hand until the flange
portion (B) fits in the groove (C) at the
top of the jack.
4. Insert the jack bar (D) into the wheel nut
wrench (E). Then put the end of the jack
bar into the shaft’s jack end, as shown in
the illustration.
