The jack is designed exclusively for
jacking up the vehicle at the jack
tubes built into either side of the
vehicle. To help avoid personal
injury, use the jack only to lift the
vehicle during a wheel change. Never
get beneath the vehicle while it is
supported by the jack. Keep hands
and feet away from the area under
the lifted vehicle. Always firmly set
parking brake and block wheels
before raising vehicle with jack.
Move vehicle to a level area which is a
safe distance from the roadway.

recommended. Retread tires may
adversely affect the handling
characteristics and safety of the
vehicle.
Do not disengage parking brake

to use the jack on level surface. Be
sure that the jack arm is fully
inserted in the jack tube. Always
lower the vehicle onto sufficient
capacity jackstands before working
under the vehicle.
Dented or bent rims can cause tire
pressure loss and damage to the tire
