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.

• 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.
