{Warning
Raising the vehicle with the jack
improperly positioned can damage
the vehicle and even make the
vehicle fall. To help avoid personal
injury and vehicle damage, be sure
to fit the jack lift head into the
proper location before raising the
vehicle.
{Warning
Lifting a vehicle and getting under
it to do maintenance or repairs is
dangerous without the appropriate
safety equipment and training. If a
jack is provided with the vehicle, it
is designed only for changing a flat
tire. If it is used for anything else,
you or others could be badly injured
or killed if the vehicle slips off the
jack. If a jack is provided with the
vehicle, only use it for changing a
flat tire.
Caution
Using a jack to raise the vehicle
without positioning it correctly
could damage your vehicle. When
raising your vehicle on a jack, be
sure to position it correctly under
the frame and avoid contact with
the plastic molding.
5. Turn the wheel wrench clockwiseto raise the jack until the slot in
the jack lift head fits into the
metal flange located behind the
cut out on the plastic molding. Do not raise the vehicle yet.
6. Put the compact spare tire near you.
7. Raise the vehicle by turning the wheel wrench clockwise in the
jack. Raise the vehicle far enough
off the ground so there is enough
room for the spare tire to fit
under the wheel well.
8. Remove all of the wheel nuts.
9. Remove the flat tire.

torque specification after replacing.
Follow the torque specification
supplied by the aftermarket
manufacturer when using accessory
locking wheel nuts. See Capacities
