6. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise.

Raise the vehicle only until the tire just clears the
surface and enough clearance is obtained to install the
spare tire. Minimum tire lift provides maximum sta-
bility.

WARNING!

Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make
the vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and
hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough
to remove the tire.

7. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.

8. Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle and install

the lug nuts with the cone-shaped end toward the
wheel. Lightly tighten the nuts.

CAUTION!

Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve stem
facing outward. The vehicle could be damaged if the
spare tire is mounted incorrectly.
