Spare Tire Stowage

To remove the spare tire from the carrier, remove the tire
cover, if equipped, and remove the lug nuts with the lug
wrench turning them counterclockwise.

NOTE:

If you have added aftermarket accessories to the

spare tire mounted carrier, it cannot exceed a gross weight
of 69 lbs (31.3 kg) including the weight of the spare tire.

Preparations For Jacking

1. Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery

areas.

WARNING!

Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the
vehicle close to moving traffic, pull far enough off
the road to avoid being hit when operating the jack
or changing the wheel.

2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.

3. Set the parking brake.
