IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY When connecting a jack handle extension with a jack handle end, use a Phillips−head screwdriver or jack handle to tighten the bolts on the joints as shown in the illustration. When connecting the jack handle with extension, tighten the bolt on the jack handle securely. Make sure the hollow meets the bolt on any joint when you tighten the bolts. 6. After making sure no one is in the vehicle, raise it high enough so that the spare tire can be installed. Allow for the fact that you need more ground clearance when putting on the spare tire than when removing the flat tire. To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle extension into the jack (it is a loose fit) and turn it clockwise with the handle, making sure the handle remains firmly fitted onto the jack handle extension. As the jack touches the vehicle and begins to lift, double−check that it is properly positioned. NOTICE Tighten all the joints securely. Otherwise, the extension may come off and it may damage the paint or vehicle body. 442
