WARNING

Storing a jack, a tire, or other
equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.

Notice: Storing an aluminum
wheel with a flat tire under your
vehicle for an extended period of
time or with the valve stem
pointing up can damage the
wheel. Always stow the wheel
with the valve stem pointing
down and have the wheel/tire
repaired as soon as possible.

Store the tire under the rear of the
vehicle in the spare tire carrier.

1. Put the tire on the ground at the

rear of the vehicle with the valve
stem pointed down.

2. Tilt the retainer downward and

through the center wheel
opening. Make sure the retainer
is fully seated across the
underside of the wheel.

3. Assemble the wheel wrench, the

jack handle extensions, and the
jack handle, as shown.
