CAUTION:

Raising your vehicle with the jack improperly
positioned can damage the vehicle and even
make the vehicle fall. To help avoid personal
injury and vehicle damage, be sure to fit the
jack lift head into the proper location before
raising the vehicle.

Notice: If you position the jack under the rocker
molding and attempt to raise the vehicle, you could
break the molding and/or cause other damage to
your vehicle. Always position the jack so that when
the jack head is raised, it will fit firmly in the
notch located inboard from the rocker molding.

5. Turn the wheel wrench counterclockwise to lower

the jack lift head until the jack fits under the
vehicle.

6. Raise the jack by turning the wheel wrench clockwise

until the slots in the jack head fit into the metal
flange located behind the V–shaped locating notches
on the plastic molding as shown.

7. Put the compact spare tire near you.

8. Raise the vehicle by turning the wheel wrench

clockwise. Raise the vehicle far enough off the
ground for the compact spare tire to fit under the
vehicle.
