On a level surface
Place wheel chocks or other suitable objects in
front and behind the wheel that is diagonal to
the wheel to be changed.
On a slight downhill gradient
If you need to change a wheel on a slight
downhill grade, place chocks and other suit-
able objects, for instance rocks, under the
proper side of the wheels of both the front and
rear axles to block the car from rolling downhill.

ment close to the onboard vehicle tool kit.
