people.

Find a level place to change your tire. To help
prevent the vehicle from moving:
1.
Set the parking brake firmly.

an
automatic transaxle shift lever in
PARK
(P),
or shift
a
manual transaxle to
FIRST

off
the engine.
To
be even more certain the vehicle won't move,
you can put blocks at the front and rear
of
the
tire farthest away from the one being changed.
That would be the tire on the other side of the
vehicle,
at
the opposite end.
The following
steps
will tell you how to use the jack and
