Stowing the tire and jack

1. Fully collapse the jack, fold the
lug wrench socket into the handle
and place the jack and wrench into
the felt bag as shown. Place the
extension bolt or L-shaped bolt into
the external pocket of the felt bag.
Take care to position the jack as
shown to make sure that the

locating holes in the jack base can be placed on the locating tabs of the
jack mounting bracket in the spare tire tub.

2. Securely close the wrench compartment and the jack bag using the
Velcro® straps.

3. Place the jack kit on the angled bracket in the spare tire tub, using
the locating tabs to position the jack correctly.

4. Insert the straight end of the jack retention
bracket through the eyelet of the angled bracket
and swing the retention bracket over the jack.
With the jack in place, place the looped end of
the retention bracket over the threaded stud in
the trunk floor and secure it with the plastic
wing nut.
