6. After making sure no one is in the
vehicle, raise it high enough so that
the spare tire can be installed.
Remember you will need more ground
clearance when putting on the spare tire
than when removing the flat tire.
To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle
end into the jack (it is a loose fit) and
turn it clockwise with the wheel nut
wrench, making sure the wheel nut wrench
remains firmly fitted onto the jack handle
extension. As the jack touches the vehicle
and begins to lift, double-check that it is
properly positioned.
&
CAUTION
Never get under the vehicle when the
vehicle is supported by the jack
alone.
