Note:
Jack at the specified locations to
avoid damage to the vehicle.
1. Place the vehicle jack at the jacking point next to the tire you are changing.
Turn the jack handle clockwise until
the wheel is completely off the ground.
2. Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench.
3. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing

has been lowered.
4. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.

5. Remove the vehicle jack and fully
tighten the lug nuts in the order shown.
See Technical Specifications (page
422).
6. Stow the flat tire. See the Stowing the Flat or Spare Tire.
7. Stow the vehicle jack and lug wrench. Make sure the jack is securely fastened
before you drive. See Stowing the
Vehicle Jack and Tool Bag.
8. Unblock the wheels. Stowing the Flat or Spare Tire
Note:
Failure to follow the spare tire
stowage instructions may result in failure of
the cable or loss of the spare tire.
1. Lay the tire on the ground with the valve stem facing up.
2. Slide the wheel partially under the vehicle and install the retainer through
the wheel center. Pull on the cable to
align the components at the end of the
cable.
3. Turn the jack handle clockwise until the tire is raised to its stowed position
underneath the vehicle. The effort to
turn the jack handle increases
significantly and the spare tire carrier
ratchets or slips when the tire is raised
to the maximum tightness. Tighten to the best of your ability, to the point
where the ratchet or slip occurs, if
possible. The spare tire carrier does not
allow you to overtighten. If the spare
tire carrier ratchets or slips with little
effort, contact your authorized dealer.
4. Check that the tire lies flat against the frame and is properly tightened. Try to
push or pull, then turn the tire to be
sure it does not move. Loosen and
retighten, if necessary. Failure to
properly stow the spare tire may result
in failure of the winch cable and loss
of the tire.
5. Repeat this tightness check procedure
when servicing the spare tire pressure,
every six months, as per your scheduled
maintenance information, or at any
time that the spare tire is disturbed
through service of other components.
6. If removed, install the spare tire lock into the bumper drive tube with the
spare tire lock key and jack handle.
Stowing the Vehicle Jack and Tool
Bag 1. Adjust the jack up or down by rotating
the lead screw located on the end of
the jack. The stowage markings should
line up with the bottom channel.
