REPAIR
Some servicing operations may require the front wheels, the rear wheels, or the entire vehicle to be raised.
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from a vehicle falling from a jack:
Be sure the vehicle is on a firm and level surface.
Never get under a vehicle while it is supported by a jack.
Use jack stands and test the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Always place chocks in front and behind the wheels not being raised.
Use extreme care since the vehicle is extremely unstable during the lifting process.
When lifting the vehicle, position the jacks and jack stands at the areas indicated only.
