WARNING
The jack must correctly engage the
jack attachment.
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level,
non-slippery surface.
Never allow any part of your body to
be extended under a vehicle suppor-
ted by a jack.
Use the jack intended for the vehicle
when changing a tire. For any other
job, use stands to support the vehicle.
Apply the parking brake and put the
gear selector in the Park (P) 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 dam-
aged.
No objects should be placed between
the base of jack and the ground, or
between the jack and the attachment
bar on the vehicle.
NOTE
The jack provided with your vehicle is
intended to be used only in temporary sit-
uations such as changing wheels in the
event of a flat tire. Only the jack that came
with your particular model should be used
to lift the vehicle. If the vehicle needs to be
lifted more frequently or for a prolonged
period, using a garage jack or hoist is rec-
ommended. Always follow this device's
instructions for use.
