What to do in an emergency

(Continued)
• Be sure to use the correct

front and rear jacking posi-
tions on the vehicle; never
use the bumpers or any other
part of the vehicle for jack
support.

• The vehicle can easily roll off

the jack causing serious
injury or death. No person
should place any portion of
their body under a vehicle that
is supported only by a jack;
use vehicle support stands.

• Do not start or run the engine

while the vehicle is on the
jack.

• Do not allow anyone to remain

in the vehicle while it is on the
jack.

• Make sure any children pres-

ent are in a secure place away
from the road and from the
vehicle to be raised with the
jack.

Jacking instructions

The jack is provided for emergency
tire changing only.
To prevent the jack from “rattling”
while the vehicle is in motion, store it
properly.
Follow jacking instructions to reduce
the possibility of personal injury.

WARNING

- Changing tires

• Never attempt vehicle repairs

in the traffic lanes of a public
road or highway.

• Always move the vehicle com-

pletely off the road and onto
the shoulder before trying to
change a tire. The jack should
be used on level firm ground.
If you cannot find a firm, level
place off the road, call a tow-
ing service company for
assistance.
