3. Place the jack underneath the lift area that is closest to the flat tire. Turn the jack screwclockwise to firmly engage the jack saddle with the lift area of the sill flange.
4. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise with the jack handle.
Raise the vehicle until the tire just clears
the road surface and enough clearance is
obtained to install the spare tire. Mini-
mum tire lift provides maximum stability.
5. Remove the wheel nuts. For vehicles so equipped, remove the wheel cover from
the wheel by hand. Do not pry the wheel
cover off. Then pull the wheel off the hub.
6. Install the spare tire.
NOTE:
For vehicles so equipped, do not attempt to
install a center cap or wheel cover on the
compact spare.
7.
Install the wheel nuts with the cone-shaped
end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly
tighten the wheel nuts.
8.Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw
counterclockwise with the jack handle.
9. 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 95 ft.lbs.
(130 N·m). If in doubt about the correct
tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by you authorized dealer
or service station.
10.
Lower the jack to its fully closed position.

Road Tire Installation
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. To ease the installation process for steel wheels with wheel covers, install two lug nuts on the mounting studs which are on each side of the valve stem. Install the lug nuts with
the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
3.
Align the valve notch in the wheel cover
with the valve stem on the wheel. Install
the cover by hand, snapping the cover over
the two lug nuts. Do not use a hammer or
excessive force to install the cover.
4. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the
wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turn- ing the jack handle counterclockwise.
6. 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 95 ft.lbs.
(130 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque
wrench by your authorized dealer or service station.
7. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to ensure that all lug nuts are properly seated against the wheel.
