NOTE:

Double check to ensure the tire is snug against the

underbody of the vehicle. Damage to the winch cable

may result if the vehicle is driven with the tire loose.

WARNING!

Do not use power tools to winch the tire up or down.
Impact-type tools may damage the winch mecha-
nism.

13. Lower the jack to the fully closed position. Return the

tools to the proper positions in the tool bag. Fold the

flap on the tool bag under the tools and roll the tools

in the bag underneath the others. Use the Velcro

straps to secure the tool bag to the jack with the lug

wrench on the forward side of the jack. Expand the

jack on the bracket by turning the thumb screw

clockwise until it is tight to prevent rattles.

14. Reinstall the plastic plug into the floor of the cargo

area. Roll up and store the Jack, Tool Kit and Tire

Changing Instructions. Reinstall the cover for the jack

in the rear storage bin.

15. Have the aluminum road wheel and tire repaired as

soon as possible and properly secure the spare tire,

jack and tool kit.

WARNING!

A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or
hard stop could endanger the occupants of the ve-
hicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in
the places provided.
