Jacking

Jacking

WARNING: Never run the engine with one wheel off the ground, such as when changing a tire. The wheel still on the ground could cause the vehicle to move. Failure to follow these instructions may result in 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. Refer to the Owner Literature when using the jack supplied with the vehicle.

CAUTION: Under no circumstances should the vehicle ever be lifted by the front or rear control arms, halfshafts or front wheel constant velocity (CV) joints. Severe damage to the vehicle could result.

CAUTION: 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.

Lift the vehicle using the jacking points. Refer to the illustrations.

Jacking Points






To lift the front or either side of the front end, position the floor jack under the front frame lift points.






To lift the rear or either side of the rear end, position the floor jack under the pinch point notches.
