pressure.

WARNING!

The limited-use spare tires are for emergency use
only. Installation of this limited-use spare tire affects
vehicle handling. With this tire, do not drive more

Center Cap Installation — If Equipped

1. Mount the road tire on the axle. For vehicles equipped

with center caps, proceed to Step 4.
2. Install two lug nuts on the mounting studs, which are

on each side of the stud that is in alignment with the

valve stem. Install the lug nuts with the cone shaped end

of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.

To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not

tighten the lug nuts fully until the vehicle is lowered to

the ground.
3. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped

end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug

nuts. To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack,

do not tighten the lug nuts fully until the vehicle is

lowered to the ground.
4. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack

handle counterclockwise.
