NOTE:
If the vehicle is too low for jack placement, slide the jack on its side and rotate it up into
position.
5. Raise the vehicle just enough to remove
the flat tire and install the spare tire.
6. Remove the lug nuts and tire.
7. Mount the spare tire.
NOTE:
• For vehicles so equipped, do not at-
tempt to install a center cap or wheel
cover on the compact spare.
• Refer to “Compact Spare Tire” and to
“Limited-Use Spare” under “Tires—
General Information” in “Starting and
Operating” in the Owner's Manual on
the DVD for additional warnings, cau-
tions, and information about the spare
tire, its use, and operation.
8. Install the lug nuts with the cone shaped
end of the lug nut toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
9. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turn-
ing the jack handle counterclockwise.
10.
Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down
on the wrench while at the end of the
handle for increased leverage. Tighten
the lug nuts in a star pattern until each nut
has been tightened twice. The correct
tightness of each lug nut is 110 ft-lb.
(150 N·m). If in doubt about the correct
tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer
or at a service station.
11. Stow the jack, tools and flat tire. Make
sure the base of the jack faces the front
of the vehicle before tightening down the
fastener.
