4. Turn the jack screw to the left until the jack can beplaced under the jacking location. Once the jack is
positioned, turn the jack screw to the right until the
jack head is properly engaged with the lift area
closest to the wheel to be changed.WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make
the vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and
hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough
to remove the tire.
5. Using the swivel wrench, 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. Mini-
mum tire lift provides maximum stability.
