What to do in an emergency
8. Insert the jack handle into the jack
and turn it clockwise, raising the
vehicle until the tyre just clears
the ground. This measurement is
approximately 30 mm (1.2 in).
Before removing the wheel lug
nuts, make sure the vehicle is sta -
ble and that there is no chance for
movement or slippage.

9. Loosen the wheel nuts and
remove them with your fingers.
Slide the wheel off the studs and
lay it flat so it cannot roll away.
To put the wheel on the hub, pick
up the spare tyre, line up the
holes with the studs and slide the
wheel onto them.
If this is difficult, tip the wheel
slightly and get the top hole in the
wheel lined up with the top stud.
Then jiggle the wheel back and
forth until the wheel can be slid
over the other studs.

WARNING
Wheels may have sharp edges. Han -
dle them carefully to avoid possible
severe injury. Before putting the
wheel into place, be sure that there
is nothing on the hub or wheel (such
as mud, tar, gravel, etc.) that inter -
feres with the wheel from fitting
solidly against the hub.
If there is, remove it. If there is not
good contact on the mounting sur -
face between the wheel and hub,
the wheel nuts could come loose
and cause the loss of a wheel. Loss
of a wheel may result in loss of con -
trol of the vehicle. This may cause
serious injury or death.
10.To reinstall the wheel, hold it on
the studs, put the wheel nuts on
the studs and tighten them finger
tight. Jiggle the tyre to be sure it
is completely seated, then tighten
the nuts as much as possible with
your fingers again.
11.Lower the vehicle to the ground
by turning the wheel nut wrench
counterclockwise.
