Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire

To remove the flat tire and install the spare, do the
following:

1. Loosen the wheel nuts, but do not remove them

yet, using the wheel wrench. Turn the handle
about 180 degrees, then flip the handle back to the
starting position. This avoids taking the wrench
off the lug nut for each turn.

2. Find the jacking

location using the
hoisting notches
located in the plastic
molding. The notches
in the plastic molding
are marked with a
triangle shape to help
you find them.

3. Attach the wheel wrench to the jack.

{

CAUTION:

Getting under a vehicle when it is jacked up
is dangerous. If the vehicle slips off the jack
you could be badly injured or killed. Never
get under a vehicle when it is supported only
by a jack.
