Range Rover Evoque: Wheel changing safety
Before raising the vehicle or changing a wheel, ensure that you read and comply with the following warnings.
Always find a safe place to
stop, off
the highway and away from traffic.
Ensure that the vehicle and jack are
both on firm level ground.
Apply the parking brake. Engage Park
(P) on automatic vehicles, select 1st
or reverse gear on manual vehicles.
Switch on the hazard warning lamps.
Ensure that the front wheels are in the
straight ahead position and engage
the steering lock.
Disconnect trailer/caravan from
vehicle.
Ensure that all passengers, and
animals, are out of the vehicle and in
a safe place away from the highway.
Place a warning triangle at a suitable
distance behind the vehicle, facing
towards oncoming traffic.
Never place anything between the jack
and the ground, or the jack and the
vehicle.
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle
unless the jack head is fully engaged
in the jacking point. Only jack the
vehicle using the approved jacking
points.
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.
Take care when lifting the spare wheel
and removing the punctured wheel.
The wheels are heavy and can cause
injuries if not handled correctly.
Do not start or run the engine while the
vehicle is supported only by a jack.
