B. Hoist Assembly
C. Retainer
D. Spare Tire
E. Extension
(Chisel End)
F. Folding Wrench
The compact spare tire is located under the vehicle,
ahead of the rear bumper. (See “Compact Spare Tire”
later in this section for more information about the
compact spare.) Attach the folding wrench to the
extension and insert the chisel end on an angle through
the hole in the rear bumper and into the hoist shaft.
Then, turn the folding wrench counterclockwise to
lower the spare tire to the ground. Continue to turn the
wrench so the spare tire can be pulled out from under
the vehicle.
Tilt the retainer at the end of the cable so it can be pulled
up through the wheel opening.
