Put on the spare tire. Put the
wheel nuts back on finger-tight,
then tighten them in a crisscross
pattern with the wheel nut wrench
until the wheel is firmly against
the hub. Do not try to tighten the
wheel nuts fully.
Lower the vehicle to the ground,
and remove the jack.
Before mounting the spare tire,
wipe any dirt off the mounting
surface of the wheel and hub
with a clean cloth. Wipe the
hub carefully; it may be hot
from driving.
The wheel cap cannot be
removed without first removing
the wheel nuts.
Remove the wheel nuts and the
wheel cap (on RT and DX models)
then remove the flat tire. Handle
the wheel nuts carefully; they may
be hot from driving. Place the flat
tire on the ground with the outside
surface facing up. 14. 15.
