Never work beneath the vehicle with the jack
as the only means of support - use vehicle
support stands.
Take care when lifting the spare wheel, and
removing the punctured wheel. The wheels
are heavy, and can cause injuries if not
handled correctly.
Take care when loosening the wheel nuts.
The wheel brace may slip off if not properly
attached, and the wheel nuts may give way
suddenly. Either unexpected movement may
cause an injury.
Always ensure replacement tires have the
correct rating and specifications (e.g. load
index, size, speed rating) for your vehicle.
Do not start or run the engine while the
vehicle is supported only by a jack.
After wheel changing, always secure tools,
chocks, jack and replaced wheel in their
correct storage positions. Such objects, if not
properly stowed, can become flying missiles
in a crash or rollover, potentially causing
injury or death.
