HONDA 2006 Element - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 202)

Before mounting the spare tire,
wipe any dirt off the mounting
surface of the wheel and hub with
a clean cloth. Wipe the hub
carefully; it may be hot from
driving.
Put on the spare tire. Put the
wheel nuts back on finger-tight,
then tighten them in a crisscross
pattern with the wheel nut wrench
until the wheel is firmly against
the hub. Do not try to tighten
them fully.
Remove the wheel nuts and the
flat tire. Temporarily place the flat
tire on the ground with the outside
surface of the wheel facing up.
