Range Rover: Wheel changing safety
Before raising the vehicle or changing a wheel, ensure that you read and comply with the following warnings.
WARNING
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. Do not jack the vehicle if it is over a metal grating or manhole cover. Apply the parking brake and engage Park (P). Ensure the air suspension is set to off-road height.
Switch on the hazard warning lamps. Ensure that the front wheels are in the straight ahead position.
Disconnect trailer 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 between the jack and the vehicle.
Always position the jack from the side of the vehicle, in line with the appropriate jacking point.
Always use the complete jacking lever assembly throughout the tire changing process, to minimize any chance of accidental injury.
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.
After wheel changing, always secure tools, chocks, jack and replaced wheel in their correct stowage positions. Such objects, if not properly stowed, can become flying missiles in a crash or rollover, potentially causing injury or death.
