Changing wheels

Safety precautions to take in the event of
a flat and during all tire changes:

Park the vehicle as far as possible from passing
traffic. Park on a firm, flat, surface. Switch on the
hazard warning flashers.
Engage the parking brake and shift the trans-
mission selector lever into P.
Have all vehicle occupants get out of the vehicle
and ensure that they remain outside the imme-

diate area in a safe place, such as behind a
guardrail.
If a warning triangle

is required, set it up on the roadside at an

appropriate distance from the rear of the vehi-
cle. Comply with all safety guidelines and regu-
lations.
Change the wheel only on a level, firm surface
which is not slippery. The vehicle or the jack
could slip to the side if you attempt to raise the
vehicle on a soft or slippery surface such as
snow, ice, tile, etc.
Position the jack on a firm support surface.
Do not use a wooden block or similar object as a
support base for the jack, as this would prevent
it from extending to its full support height and
reduce its load-carrying capacity.
To avoid serious or fatal injury, never lie under
the vehicle and never start the engine while it is
supported by the jack.

What you will need
