WARNING

- Changing a tire

• To prevent vehicle movement

while changing a tire, always
set the parking brake fully,
and always block the wheel
diagonally opposite the wheel
being changed.

• We recommend that the

wheels of the vehicle be
chocked, and that no person
remain in a vehicle that is
being jacked.
