WARNING - Changing
Tires
• Never attempt vehicle repairs
or a tire change in the traffic
lanes of a public road or
highway. Always move the
vehicle completely off the
road and onto the shoulder
before trying to change a tire.
If you cannot find a firm, level
place off the road, call a
towing service company for
assistance.
• Be sure to use the correct
front or rear jacking
positions on the vehicle;
never use the bumpers or
any other part of the vehicle
for jack support.
• Never allow any portion of
your body to get beneath the
vehicle while using the jack.
• Do not start or run the engine
while the vehicle is
supported by the jack.
