lock the wheels.
Check that the braking warning
lamps in the instrument panel
are on (not fl ashing).
The occupants must get out of
the vehicle and wait where they
are safe.
If necessary, place a chock un-
der the wheel diagonally oppo-

Never go underneath a vehicle
raised using a jack; use an axle
stand.
