Turn
the ratchet to lower the spare tire to the ground. Continue to
turn
the
ratchet until
the

How
to
Use
This
Manual
Many people read their owner’s manual from beginning to end when they
first receive their new vehicle. This will help you learn about the features
and controls for your vehicle. In this manual, you’ll find that pictures and
words work together to explain things quickly.
INDEX:
A good place to look for what you need is the Index in back of the
manual. It’s an alphabetical list of all that’s in the manual, and the page
number where you’ll find it.
Safety
Warnings
and
Symbols
You will find a number of safety cautions in this book. We use a box with
gray background and the word CAUTION to tell you about things that could
hurt you if you were to ignore the warning.
In the gray caution area, we tell you what the hazard is. Then we tell you
what to do to help avoid or reduce the hazard. Please read these cautions. If
you
don’t, you
or
others could be hurt.
You
will also find a circle with a slash through it in this book. This safety
symbol means “Don’t,” “Don’t do this,”
or
“Don’t let this happen.”
V
Vehicle Damage Warnings
Also,
in
this book
you
will find these notices:
NOTICE:
I
These mean there
is
something that could damage
your
vehicle.
In
the notice area, we
tell
you about something that can damage your
vehicle. Many times, this damage would
not
be covered by your warranty,
and it could be costly. But the notice will
tell
you what to do
to
help avoid
the
damage.
When you read other manuals, you might
see
CAUTION and NOTICE
warnings in different colors or
in
different words.
You'll also see warning labels on your vehicle. They use yellow for
cautions, blue for notices and the words CAUTION or NOTICE.
