Changing a Flat Tire

To store the flat tire, put a sheet of

paper on the contact surface of the
tire and the trunk well as shown in
the illustration. Slide the tire in the
trunk well with the outside surface
of the aluminum wheel facing up.

21.Temporarily keep the wing bolt in

the trunk as well. See

Replacing

Tires and Wheels on page

for tire replacement.

Storing the Folding Spare Tire
Before returning the folding spare
tire to its compartment, you must let
out all the air. It will fold back to its
original space saving shape.

The folding spare tire must be off

the ground when you let the air out.
It is best to deflate the folding spare
tire while it is still mounted on the
car. This prevents foreign material
from being trapped between the
wheel and tire.

1. If the folding spare tire is still on

the car, follow the instructions
under

Changing a Flat Tire to

loosen the wheel nuts and jack up
the car.
