Spare wheel, jack and tool kit are stowed in the trunk compartment. Before raising the car with the jack

be sure it is on firm and level ground.

Do not crawl or work under the car while it is raised by the jack.

Before the car is raised with the jack the parking brake should be applied and one of the gears engaged.

With automatic transmission, the selector should be in Park. Block one of the wheels on the opposite

side of the car from the jack.
