WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES 397 When the spare is clear, tilt the retainer at the end of the cable, and pull it through the center of the wheel. Preparations For Jacking 1. Park the vehicle on a firm level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as possible. Avoid icy or slippery areas. WARNING! Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull far enough off the road to avoid being hit when operating the jack or changing the wheel. 2. Set the parking brake. 3. Place the shift lever into PARK (automatic transmission) or REVERSE (manual transmission). 4. Turn the ignition to the LOCK position. 6 Lowering/Raising Spare Tire CAUTION! The winch mechanism is designed for use with the jack extension tube only. Use of an air wrench or other power tools is not recommended and they can damage the winch.
