Position the jack handle on the jack. Do not raise the
vehicle until you are sure the jack is fully engaged.

5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw to the right.
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.

WARNING!

Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make
the vehicle less stable and cause a collision. It could
slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the
vehicle only enough to remove the tire.

6. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.

7. Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle and install
lug nuts with the cone-shaped end toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the nuts.
