WARNING: Always use the jack provided as original equipment
with your vehicle. If using a jack other than the one provided as

original equipment with your vehicle, make sure the jack capacity is
adequate for the vehicle weight, including any vehicle cargo or
modifications.

Note: Passengers should not remain in the vehicle when the vehicle is
being jacked.

Park on a level surface, set the parking brake and activate the hazard
flashers. Then, place the transmission selector lever in position P and
turn the engine off.

The jack and tools are located behind a cover in the sidewall at the left
rear of the cargo area. The retention straps and wing nut need to be
removed before removing the jack.

1. Open the cap in the rear of the
vehicle and insert the end of the lug
wrench into the guide hole.

2. Turn the handle counterclockwise
and lower the spare tire until it
rests on the ground and the cable is
slack.
