Jacking Instructions
1. Remove the scissors jack and lug wrench
from the spare wheel as an assembly. Turn
the jack screw to the left to loosen the lug
wrench, and remove the wrench from the
jack assembly.
NOTE:
The jack handle attaches to the side
of the jack with two attachment points.
When the jack is partially expanded, the
tension between the two attachment points
holds the jack handle in place.
2. Loosen, but do not remove, the wheel
nuts by turning them to the left one turn
while the wheel is still on the ground.
3. There is a front and rear jacking location
on each side of the vehicle.
4. Turn the jack screw to the left until the
jack can be placed under the jacking
location. Once the jack is positioned, turn
the jack screw to the right until the jack
head is properly engaged with the lift
area closest to the wheel to be changed.
Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure
the jack is securely engaged.
5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack
screw to the right, using the swivel
wrench. Raise the vehicle only until the
tire just clears the surface and enough
clearance is obtained to install the spare
tire. Minimum tire lift provides maximum
stability.
6. Remove the wheel nuts, and pull the
wheel and wheel covers (where
applicable) off the hub. Install the spare
wheel and wheel nuts with the cone
shaped end of the nuts toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the nuts.
