NOTE:

Tire should be stowed with the “beauty” side

up. Storing the tire upside down may result in scratching
or damage to the wheel face. Continue winching up the
tire until you hear the winch “ratchet” three times.
Double check to ensure the tire is snug against the
underbody of the vehicle. Damage to the winch cable
may result if the vehicle is driven with the tire loose.

WARNING!

Do not use power tools to winch the tire up or down.
Impact type tools may damage the winch mechanism.

12. Reinstall the rubber plug into the floor of the cargo
area.

JUMP STARTING

If the vehicle has a discharged battery, booster cables may
be used to obtain a start from a booster battery or the
battery in another vehicle. This type of start can be
dangerous if done improperly, so follow this procedure
carefully.
