Place Jack under the car (as shown).
It's best to avoid using the jack included with the car. If at all possible, use at least a 2 ton floor jack.
Use the Jack Handle to crank up just enough so that the tire noticeably lifts off the ground.

Place the rear wheel on the front of the car and place the front wheel in the rear. Tighten up the lug nuts and your tire rotation is complete.
Begin to tighten the lug nuts as much as you can with the wheel in the air, and then lower the car to the ground to finish tightening.
