HONDA 2011 Civic Sedan - Manual (Page 335)

Turn on the hazard warning lights,
and turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK (0) position. Have all
passengers get out of the vehicle
while you change the tire.
Park the vehicle on firm, level, and
non-slippery ground. Put the
transmission in Park (automatic)
or reverse (manual). Apply the
parking brake. Open the trunk. Raise the trunk
floor by lifting up on the back edge.
Take the tool case out of the spare
tire.
Unscrew the wing bolt, and take
the spare tire out of its well.
If you have a flat tire while driving,
stop in a safe place to change it.
Drive slowly along the shoulder until
you get to an exit or an area to stop
that is far away from the traffic lanes.
The compact spare tire is smaller
than a standard tire, and it will affect
the vehicle’s handling. Drive
cautiously when the spare is
mounted on your vehicle.
The size difference may also cause
damage to the differential, so do not
mount the compact spare on the
front. If either front tire goes flat,
remove the rear tire on that same
side, mount the compact spare tire
on the rear, then mount the rear tire
on the front.
