WARNING
• The jack must correctly engage the bar
in the jack attachment. The vehicle's
weight must not rest on the jack attachment.
See illustration "Attaching the
jack" on the previous page.
• Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, nonslippery
surface.
• Never allow any part of your body to be
extended under a vehicle supported by
a jack.
• Use the jack intended for the vehicle
when replacing a wheel. For any other
job, use stands to support the side of
the vehicle being worked on.
• Apply the parking brake and put the
gear selector in the (P)ark position.
• Block the wheels standing on the
ground, use rigid wooden blocks or
large stones.
• The jack should be kept well-greased
and clean, and should not be damaged.
• No objects should be placed between
the base of jack and the ground, or
between the jack and the attachment
bar on the vehicle.
The jack and tools should be returned to their storage spaces. The jack should be cranked down fully so that it fits into the intended space.
