• Block both the front and rear of the

wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking
position. For example, if changing the
right front tire, block the left rear wheel.

NOTE:

Passengers should not remain in the

vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.

Jacking And Tire Changing Instructions

• Remove the spare tire, jack and tools from their stored location.
• Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug nuts by turning them counterclockwise one

turn while the wheel is still on the ground.

• Assemble the jack and jacking tools. Connect the jack handle driver to the extension,

then to the lug wrench.

• Place the jack:

• For front wheels, place the jack and protective cap right under the triangle on the

body flange, just behind the front tire.

• For rear wheels, place the jack and

protective cap right under the triangle
on the rear tie-down bracket, just
forward of the rear tire.
