Jack attachment points

each side of the vehicle. Position the
jack correctly in the attachment (see

multaneously guiding the base of the
jack to the ground. The base of the jack
must be flat on a level, firm, non-slip-
pery surface. Before raising the vehicle,
check that the jack is still correctly
positioned in the attachment.
7. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be
changed is lifted off the ground.
8. Unscrew the wheel nuts completely and
carefully remove the wheel so as not to
damage the threads on the studs.
