What should be noted when changing a tyre using a car jack?

When changing a tyre with a car jack, it’s essential to use only the jacking points specified by the vehicle manufacturer. This prevents damage to the car's body and ensures safety. Also, the surface where you place the jack must be stable and not slippery, as using a jack on uneven or soft ground can cause the car to slip or the jack to tip over. You do not need to place the jack at the mid-point of the car's length; only the designated jacking points should be used. Knowing and following these rules is important to ensure your safety while changing a tyre.
