WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES • Block both the front and rear of the wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking position. For example, if changing the right front tire, block the left rear wheel. NOTE: Passengers should not remain in the vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked. Jacking And Tire Changing Instructions • Remove the spare tire, jack and tools from their stored location. • Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug nuts by turning them counterclockwise one turn while the wheel is still on the ground. • Assemble the jack and jacking tools. Connect the jack handle driver to the extension, then to the lug wrench. • Place the jack: • For front wheels, place the jack and protective cap right under the triangle on the body flange, just behind the front tire. • For rear wheels, place the jack and protective cap right under the triangle on the rear tie-down bracket, just forward of the rear tire. 69
