WARNING - Changing a
Front Tire
When one front wheel is lifted
off the ground, neither the
automatic transaxle P (Park)
position nor the manual
transaxle R (Reverse) position
will prevent the vehicle from
moving and possibly slipping
off the jack, even if these
positions are properly engaged.
To prevent vehicle movements
while changing a tire, always set
the parking brake fully, and
always block the wheel
diagonally opposite the wheel
being changed.
WARNING - Jack
Location
To reduce the possibility of
injury, be sure to use only the
jack provided with the vehicle
and in the correct jack position;
never use any other part of the
vehicle for jack support.
