4. For a rear tire, place the jack in the slot on the rear tie-down bracket, just forward
of the rear tire (as indicated by the triangular lift point symbol on the sill
molding). Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is fully engaged.
5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack
screw clockwise. Raise the vehicle
just enough to remove the flat tire.
6. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.
7. Install the temporary spare wheel/tire
and lightly tighten the lug nuts prior
to lowering to prevent the vehicle from
moving on the jack.
8. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack
screw counterclockwise, and remove
the jack.
9. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push
down on the wrench while at the end
of the handle for increased leverage.
Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern
until each nut has been tightened
twice. The correct wheel nut tightness
is 110 ft lbs (150 N·m). If in doubt
about the correct tightness, have
them checked with a torque wrench
by your authorized dealer or at a
service station.
