Roadside emergencies
173
In a heavily loaded vehicle
condition and/or unusual
emergency conditions such as the
loss of the tire from the wheel rim,
the vehicle may be resting so close
to the ground that it may be
difficult to insert the jack under the
vehicle at the specified jacking
location. In this event, insert the
jack under the vehicle at a point
forward or rearward of the jacking
location and slide it into the correct
jacking position location.
To lessen the risk of
personal injury, do not put
any part of your body under the
vehicle while changing a tire. Do
not start the engine when your
vehicle is on the jack. The jack is
only meant for changing the tire.
Do not use the suspension as a
jacking point.
