using the jack. Avoid jarring the
raised vehicle or leaving it sup-
ported on the jack for any longer
than required. Both are very
dangerous.
(3) Do not start or run the engine
while the vehicle is on the jack.
The vehicle might start moving
causing the vehicle to fall down
from the jack.

wheels. The tyres remaining on
the ground may turn, causing
the vehicle body to fall down
from the jack.

CAUTION
(1) Grasp the spare wheel firmly
when removing or attaching it.
(2) When removing the spare wheel,
put on gloves. Removing the
spare wheel with your hands
may cause injury to the fin-
gers.
(3) Check the air pressure of the
spare wheel frequently and
make sure it is ready for emer-
gency use at any time.
Driving with an insufficient tyre
pressure can lead to an acci-
dent. If you have no choice but
to drive with an insufficient tyre
pressure, keep your speed down
and inflate the tyre to the cor-
rect pressure as soon as pos-
sible. (Refer to“Tyre inflation
pressure”on page 9-14.)
Maintaining the spare wheel at
the highest specified air pres-
sure will ensure that it can
always be used under any con-
ditions (city/high-speed driv-
ing, varying load weight, etc.)

recommended you wear gloves.
Removing the spare wheel with your
bare hands may cause injury to the
fingers.
