not slide off the jack completely, make sure no
one is behind you or on either side of you as you
pull the jack out from under the spare.

carefully remove the jack. Use one hand to push
against the spare while firmly pulling the jack out
from under the spare tire with the other hand.
If the spare tire is hanging from the cable, insert
the hoist end of extension, and wheel wrench into
the hoist shaft hole in the bumper and turn the
wheel wrench counterclockwise to lower the spare
the rest of the way.

bumper clockwise to raise the cable back up if the
cable is hanging under the vehicle.
