Notice: If you use a jack to raise the vehicle without
positioning it correctly, you could damage your
vehicle. When raising your vehicle on a jack, avoid
contact with the rear axle control arms.
Notice: If you position the jack under the rocker
molding and attempt to raise the vehicle, you could
break the molding and/or cause other damage to your
vehicle. Always position the jack so that when the
jack head is raised, it will fit firmly in the notch
located inboard from the rocker molding.

2. Near each wheel, there is a notch (A and B) in the
vehicle’s frame, inboard of the rocker molding.
Position the jack and raise the jack head until it fits
firmly into the notch in the vehicle’s frame nearest
the flat tire.
Do not raise the vehicle yet.
3. Put the compact spare tire near you.
{CAUTION:
Getting under a vehicle when it is jacked up is
dangerous. If the vehicle slips off the jack you
could be badly injured or killed. Never get under
a vehicle when it is supported only by a jack.
