Jacking Instructions

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 flasher.
• Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set an automatic transmission in PARK; a

manual transmission in REVERSE.

• 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.

CAUTION!

Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on locations other than those
indicated in the Jacking Instructions for this vehicle.

1. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug bolts with the wrench handle by turning

them to the left one turn while the wheel is still on the ground.

2. There are two jack engagement locations on each side of the vehicle body.

NOTE:
Place the jack underneath the jack engagement location that is closest to the flat tire.
