IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE
Storing the jack and tools
Jack is stored in the compartment of
the cargo area.
Jack handle and wheel lug nut
wrench are located in the cargo area
floor. Removing the spare tire
Your spare tire is stored underneath
your vehicle, directly below the cargo
area.
1. Open the rear hatch.
2. Assemble the wheel lug nut
wrench to the jack handle.
3. Insert the jack handle into the hole
just above the rear bumper. The
resistance to turning will be felt
when properly engaged.
4. Turn the jack handle counter-
clockwise until the spare tire
reaches the ground. Turn the jack
handle 10~13 revolutions counter-
clockwise more after the spare tire
reaches the ground, and draw the
spare tire towards rear of vehicle.
Never rotate the jack handle more
than 17 revolutions, otherwise the
spare tire carrier may be dam-
aged.
