Vehicle jack

Warning!

G

The jack is designed exclusively for jacking

up the vehicle at the jack take-up brackets

built into both sides of the vehicle. To help

avoid personal injury, use the jack only to lift

the vehicle during a wheel change. Never

get beneath the vehicle while it is supported

by the jack. Keep hands and feet away from

the area under the lifted vehicle. Always

firmly set parking brake and block wheels

before raising vehicle with jack.

Do not disengage parking brake while the

vehicle is raised. Be certain that the jack is

always vertical (plumb line) when in use,

especially on hills. Always try to use the jack

on level surface. Make sure the jack arm is

fully seated in the jack take-up bracket. Al-

ways lower the vehicle onto sufficient

capacity jackstands before working under

the vehicle.
