WARNING!

Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The
vehicle could slip off the jack and fall on you. You
could be crushed. Never get any part of your body
under a vehicle that 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.

3. Place the wrench on the jack screw and turn to the

right until the jack head is properly engaged in the

described location. Do not raise the vehicle until you

are sure the jack is securely engaged.

4. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw to the right,

using the wrench. Raise the vehicle only until the tire

just clears the surface and enough clearance is ob-

tained to install the spare tire. Minimum tire lift

provides maximum stability.

WARNING!

Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make
the vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and
hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough
to remove the tire.

5. Remove the wheel lug bolts. For vehicles with wheel

covers, remove the cover from the wheel by hand. Do not

pry the wheel cover off. Then pull the wheel off the hub.

6. Install the spare tire. Lightly tighten the wheel lug

bolts.

CAUTION!

Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve stem
facing outward. The vehicle could be damaged if the
spare tire is mounted incorrectly.
