under a vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get

under a raised vehicle, take it to a service center

where it can be raised on a lift.

3. Place the wrench handle and lug bolt adapter on the

jack screw and turn to the right until the jack head is

properly engaged in the described location. Do not

raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is
securely engaged.

4. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw to the right,

using the wrench handle and lug bolt adapter. 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 stability.

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.

5. Remove the wheel lug bolts. For vehicles with wheel

covers, remove the cover from the wheel by hand. Do

not pry the wheel cover off. Then pull the wheel off the

hub.

6. Install the spare tire. Lightly tighten the wheel lug bolts.

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.
