Park the car on a firm, level surface, apply the parking brake, turn
on the hazard warning switch and put the transmission in gear (Park
for automatic).

2. Remove the spare tire.
3. Place blocks in front and back of the wheel diagonally opposite
the tire you are changing.
4. Use the lug wrench/jack handle to loosen the wheel lug nuts
counterclockwise one-half turn.
Follow tire changing preparations and procedures carefully to
reduce the possibility of injury. The jack is designed for changing
tires only. STAND CLEAR, DO NOT get under the car and DO NOT
run the engine when the car is supported only by the jack.
5. Place the jack under the jack point nearest the wheel you are
removing; align the jack head so the car frame will fit in the recess
as you raise the jack.
