JACKING INSTRUCTIONS
Jack Warning Label
1. Remove the spare tire, jack, wheel chocks,
and lug wrench.
2. If equipped with aluminum wheels where the
center cap covers the lug nuts, use the lug
wrench to pry the center cap off carefully
before raising the vehicle.
NOTE:
When the following label is present, the spare tire
must be used for the rear wheel(s) only. For a flat
front tire, you must first install the spare on one of
the rear tires. Then, follow the jacking instructions
for front tire replacement and replace the front
road wheel with the wheel removed from the rear
of the vehicle.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision
or hard stop could endanger the occupants of
the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the
spare tire in the places provided. Have the
deflated (flat) tire repaired or replaced
immediately.
WARNING!
Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to
help prevent personal injury or damage to your
vehicle:
Always park on a firm, level surface as far from
the edge of the roadway as possible before
raising the vehicle.
Turn on the Hazard Warning Flashers.
Apply the parking brake firmly and set an auto-
matic transmission in PARK.
Chock the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be raised.
Never start or run the engine with the vehicle
on a jack.
Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when it is
on a jack.
Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a
jack. If you need to get under a raised vehicle,
take it to a service center where it can be
raised on a lift.
Only use the jack in the positions indicated
and for lifting this vehicle during a tire change.
If working on or near a roadway, be extremely
careful of motor traffic.
To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are
securely stowed, spares must be stowed with
the valve stem facing the ground.
