JACKING
WARNING:
- Block all wheels remaining on the ground when jacking the vehicle. If the rear wheels are to remain on the ground, also set the parking brake. These actions will help prevent unintended vehicle movement.
- Only raise the vehicle when positioned on a hard, level surface. Attempting to raise the vehicle on an uneven or soft surface may result in vehicle slipping or falling from the jack.
- Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.
CAUTION:
- The jack provided with the vehicle is intended to be used in an emergency for changing a deflated tire. To avoid damage to the vehicle, never use the jack to hoist the vehicle for any other purpose.
- Do not attempt to use jack pressure on either the front bumper or the rear bumper of any vehicle. Damage to bumper covers will occur.
- Make sure the jack has an adequate lifting capacity for the vehicle being lifted, or damage to the vehicle may occur.
