Jacking Instructions
1. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel

turn while the wheel is still on the
ground.
2. There are two jack engagement locations on each side of the vehicle body. These
locations are on the sill flange of the vehicle body.

Rear jack locations are between a pair of down-facing tabs on the sill flange of the
vehicle side body.
Front jack location is on the sill flange of the vehicle body and is located 6 in
(150 mm) from door edge.
NOTE:
In some situations the jack may need to be
placed on its side in order to be pushed
under the vehicle. Return the jack to its
correct orientation once it is under the ve-
hicle.
3. Place the wrench on the jack screw and
turn to the right until the jack head is
properly engaged in the described loca-
tion.Do not raise the vehicle until you
are sure the jack is securely engaged.
4. 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.
5. Remove the wheel lug nuts, for vehicles with wheel covers, remove the cover from the
wheel by hand. Do not pry the wheel cover off. Then pull the wheel off the hub.

Vehicles Without Wheel Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
4. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle
for increased leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until each nut has been
tightened twice. The correct tightness of each lug nut is 100 ft/lbs (135 N·m). If in
doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by your
authorized dealer or service station.
5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to ensure that
all lug nuts are properly seated against the wheel.
