the tire's tread is on the ground and
the valve stem is at the top of the
wheel facing away from the rear of the
vehicle.
2. Tilt the retainer at the end of the winch cable and drop it through the
center of the wheel. Then place the
spare tire with the cable and retainer
underneath the vehicle.
3. Fit the assembled jack-handle over the winch drive nut. Rotate the jack-handle assembly clockwise to raise the spare tire into the storage area. Continue to rotate
the jack-handle assembly until you hear the winch mechanism click three times.

WARNING!(Continued)
• To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are securely stowed, spares mustbe stowed with the valve stem facing the ground.
• Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only
enough to remove the tire.
• To avoid possible personal injury, handle the wheel covers with care to avoid contact with any sharp edges.
• To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this warning
may result in personal injury.
• A loose tire or jack, thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in
the places provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired or replaced
immediately.

NOTE: When using a portable battery
booster pack follow the manufacturer's
operating instructions and precautions.
