WA R N I N G
!Stop jacking up the vehicle as soon as the tire is
raised off the ground. It is dangerous to raise the
vehicle any higher. Do not get under your vehicle while using the jack. Do not bump the raised vehicle or leave it sitting on
the jack for a long time. Both are very dangerous. Do not use a jack except the one that came with your
vehicle. The jack should not be used for any purpose other
than to change a tire.
No one should be in your vehicle when using the
jack. Do not start or run the engine while your vehicle is
on the jack.Do not turn the raised wheel. The tires that are still
on the ground could turn and make your vehicle fall
off the jack.
CAUTION
!Handle the wheel carefully when changing the tire,
to avoid scratching the wheel surface.
