3. Loosen the wheel nuts — but do
not remove them — using the lug
wrench. For wheels with a wheel
lock key, use the wheel lock key
between the lock nut and lug
wrench. The key is supplied in the
front passenger door pocket.
Notice: If this vehicle has wheel
locks and an impact wrench is
used to remove the wheel
nuts, the lock nut or wheel lock
key could be damaged. Do
not use an impact wrench to
remove the wheel nuts if
this vehicle has wheel locks.
4. To identify the appropriate jacking
location, find the triangle (A)
about 12 inches (30.5 cm) from
the front tire or (B) about
10.5 inches (27 cm) from the
rear tire.
The triangle is located near each
wheel on the vehicle's exterior.
Notice: If a jack is used to raise
the vehicle without positioning it
correctly, the vehicle could be
damaged. When raising the
vehicle on a jack, avoid contact
with the rear axle control arms.
5. Do not raise the vehicle yet. Put
the compact spare tire near you.
Service and Appearance Care
Getting under a vehicle when it is
jacked up is dangerous. If the
vehicle slips off the jack, you
could be badly injured or killed.
Never get under a vehicle when it
is supported only by a jack.
Raising your vehicle with the jack
improperly positioned can damage
the vehicle and even make the
vehicle fall. To help avoid
personal injury and vehicle
damage, be sure to fit the jack lift
head into the proper location
before raising the vehicle.
6. Attach the lug wrench to the
jack, and turn the wrench
clockwise to raise the jack head
3 inches (7.6 cm).
