Storing a Flat or Spare Tire
and Tools
{ CAUTION:
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.
To store the flat or spare tire on the spare tire
mount, do the following:
1. Slide the flat or spare tire onto the swing-gate.
In order to store the flat or the spare tire, you
may need someone to assist you.
2. Reinstall the nuts to retain the flat or spare tire.
3. Tighten the nuts by hand.
{ CAUTION:
Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly
tightened wheel nuts can cause the wheel
to come loose and even come off. This
could lead to an accident. Be sure to use
the correct wheel nuts. If you have to
replace them, be sure to get new GM
original equipment wheel nuts. Stop
somewhere as soon as you can and have
the nuts tightened with a torque wrench
to the proper torque specification. See
Capacities and Specifications on page 422
for wheel nut torque specification.
