3.Turn the handle counterclockwise andlower the spare tire until you can slidethe tire rearward and the cable is slack.
4.Remove the retainer through the centerof the wheel. If your vehicle is equippedwith a tether, perform the followingsteps.
5.Lift the spare tire on end to access thetether attachment.
6. Use the lug wrench to remove the lugnut from the spare tire tether.
7. If not replacing the spare or flat tire tothe underbody storage area, raise thewheel retainer up into the installedposition.
8. Use the attached fastener strap (onthe spare tire tether) to attach thetether end to the winch retainer priorto raising to the installed position.
Tire Change Procedure
WARNINGS
When one of the front wheels is offthe ground, the transmission alonewill not prevent the vehicle frommoving or slipping off the jack, even if thetransmission is in park (P).
To help prevent the vehicle frommoving when you change a tire, besure to place the transmission in park(P), set the parking brake and block (inboth directions) the wheel that isdiagonally opposite (other side and end ofthe vehicle) to the tire being changed.
Never get underneath a vehicle thatis supported only by a jack. If thevehicle slips off the jack, you orsomeone else could be seriously injured.

WARNINGS
Do not attempt to change a tire onthe side of the vehicle close tomoving traffic. Pull far enough off theroad to avoid the danger of being hit whenoperating the jack or changing the wheel.
Always use the jack provided asoriginal equipment with your vehicle.If using a jack other than the oneprovided as original equipment with yourvehicle, make sure the jack capacity isadequate for the vehicle weight, includingany vehicle cargo or modifications.
Note:Passengers should not remain in thevehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Park on a level surface, set the parkingbrake and activate the hazard flashers.
1.Turn the engine off and block the wheelthat is diagonally opposite of the flattire using the wheel chock.Note: Lockthe manual hub on the wheel if thevehicle is a 4x4.
2. Remove the jack, jack handle, lugwrench and spare tire from thestowage locations.
3.Use the tip of the lug wrench to removeany wheel trim.
4. Loosen each wheel lug nut ½ turncounterclockwise, but do not removethem until the wheel is raised off theground.

Jacking the Vehicle
1. Turn the jack handle clockwise untilthe wheel is completely off the groundand high enough to install the sparetire.
2. Remove the lug nuts with the lugwrench.
3.Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,making sure the valve stem is facingoutward for all front wheels and singlerear wheel vehicles. If you are replacingan inboard rear tire on dual rear wheelvehicles, the valve stem must be facingoutward. If you are replacing theoutboard wheel, the valve stem mustbe facing inward. Reinstall the lug nutsuntil the wheel is snug against the hub.Do not fully tighten the lug nuts untilthe wheel has been lowered.
4. Lower the wheel by turning the jackhandle counterclockwise.
5. Remove the jack and fully tighten thelug nuts in the order shown. SeeTechnical Specifications (page 301).
6. Stow the flat tire. See Stowing the flator spare tire if the vehicle is equippedwith a spare tire carrier.

When installing the wheel centerornaments, make sure that the ornamentretention towers on the back side of theornament are aligned with the studs or lugnuts. The retention towers are designed tobe installed over the studs or nuts andretain to the flange on the lug nut.
If the ornament retention towers arealigned between the studs or lug nuts, theornament is improperly installed. Thisimproper installation may appear andsound correct, but will not keep theornament on the vehicle. Ornamentsimproperly installed in this manner will falloff or become loose with minimal force orimpact.

Jacking the Vehicle
1. Insert the jack handle into the pumplinkage.
2. Use an up-and-down motion with thejack handle to raise the wheelcompletely off the ground.
Note:Hydraulic jacks are equipped with apressure release valve that prevents liftingloads which exceed the jack's ratedcapacity.
3. Remove the lug nuts with the lugwrench.
4.Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,making sure the valve stem is facingoutward on all front an inboard rearwheels. If you are replacing theoutboard wheel, the valve stem mustbe facing inward. Reinstall the lug nutsuntil the wheel is snug against the hub.Do not fully tighten the lug nuts untilthe wheel has been lowered.
5. Lower the wheel by slowly turning therelease valve counterclockwise.Opening the release valve slowly willprovide a more controlled rate ofdescent.
6. Remove the jack and fully tighten thelug nuts in the order shown. SeeTechnical Specifications (page 301).
7. Stow the flat tire. See Stowing the flator spare tire if the vehicle is equippedwith a spare tire carrier.

Stowing the Flat or Spare Tire
Note:Failure to follow spare tire stowageinstructions may result in failure of cable orloss of spare tire.
Note:If you are stowing a tire that requiresreattaching it to the vehicle with a tether,perform these steps first, then proceed withthe following steps.
1. Place the tire on end with the valvestem facing toward the front of thevehicle.
2. Place the tether into the bolt holes inthe wheel and attach the lug nut usingthe lug wrench.
3. Lay the tire on the ground with thevalve stem facing up.
4. Slide the wheel partially under thevehicle and install the retainer throughthe wheel center. Pull on the cable toalign the components at the end of thecable.
5. Turn the jack handle clockwise untilthe tire is raised to its stowed positionunderneath the vehicle. The effort toturn the jack handle increasessignificantly and the spare tire carrierratchets or slips when the tire is raisedto the maximum tightness. Tighten tothe best of your ability, to the pointwhere the ratchet/slip occurs, ifpossible. The spare tire carrier will notallow you to overtighten. If the sparetire carrier ratchets or slips with littleeffort, take the vehicle to yourauthorized dealer for assistance at yourearliest convenience.
6. Check that the tire lies flat against theframe and is properly tightened. Try topush or pull, then turn the tire to besure it will not move. Loosen andretighten, if necessary. Failure toproperly stow the spare tire may resultin failure of the winch cable and lossof the tire.
