CAUTION:

(Continued)

To be even more certain the vehicle will not
move, you should put blocks at the front and
rear of the tire farthest away from the one
being changed. That would be the tire, on the
other side, at the opposite end of the vehicle.

When your vehicle has a flat tire, use the following
example as a guide to assist you in the placement of
wheel blocks.

The following information tells you how to use the jack
and change a tire.

Removing the Spare Tire and Tools

The equipment you will need is located in the trunk.

1. Open the trunk. See Trunk on page 2-12 for more

information.

2. Lift the handle on the spare tire cover. The handle

can hook on the front edge of the trunk’s
weatherstrip to hold the cover out of the way.

3. Turn the wing nut counterclockwise and remove it.

Then remove the compact spare tire. See Compact
Spare Tire
on page 5-84 for more information.

4. Remove the wing nut holding the jack in place.
