JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
If a tire must be changed, do so only after making sure
the vehicle is stopped in a safe, flat location.
Jacking up the vehicle
1. Park the vehicle on level and stable ground.
2. Switch on the hazard warning flashers, set up a
warning triangle, flashing signal light, etc., at an ad-
equate distance from the vehicle, and have all passengers
leave the vehicle. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK”
position.
3. Set the parking brake firmly, and move the gearshift
lever (manual transaxle) to the “N” (Neutral) position or
move the selector lever (automatic transaxle) to the “P”
(PARK) position.
4. Apply a chock or block (A) at the tire diagonally
opposite the tire (B) to be changed.
NOTE : The chock shown is not supplied with the ve-
hicle. It is recommended that you keep one in the vehicle
for use if required.
