Insert flat end of lug wrench and turn/pull straight out

Changing wheels
The spare wheel is located under the carpet on the trunk floor. The jack and crank are secured in the wheel recess.

There are two jack attachment points on each side of the car (see illustration on next page).

To change a wheel:

Engage the parking brake.
Put the gear selector in (P)ark (automatic transmission) or reverse (manual transmission).

Loosen the wheel bolts

Remove the wheel cap (where applicable) using the lug wrench in the tool bag.
With the car still on the ground, use the lug wrench to loosen the wheel bolts 1/2 - 1 turn. Turn the bolts

counterclockwise to loosen.

CAUTION:
The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with
the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.

Correct tightening torque on wheel bolts must be observed. The wheel bolts should never be greased or lubricated. The
extended, chromed wheel bolts must not be used with steel rims, as they make it impossible to fit the hub caps.

Locking wheel bolts can be used on both aluminum and steel wheels. If hub caps are used on steel wheels, the locking
wheel bolt should be mounted in the hole as far from the tire's inflation valve as possible. It would otherwise not be
possible to mount the hub cap on the wheel.
