Removing the spare tire

1. Assemble the jack handle to the
lug wrench by sliding the square
end of the jack handle through the
plastic grommet on the lug nut
wrench and into the square hole on
the other side.

2. Insert the square end of the jack
handle extension into the rear
access hole located just above the
rear bumper and below the tailgate.

Forward motion will stop and
resistance to turning will be felt
when properly engaged.

3. Connect the jack handle to the
jack handle extension. Turn the
handle counterclockwise until the
tire is lowered to the ground and
the cable is slightly slack.

4. With the spare tire on the ground,
remove the retainer from the spare
tire.
