7. Remove plastic wing nut and jack and
lug wrench assembly.
8. Detach the lug wrench from the jack by turning the jack hex nut drive screw
counterclockwise. This will lower the
jack and loosen the mechanical lock. 9. Unfold the wrench for use.
10.
If your vehicle has wheel trim covering
the lug nuts, use the tool provided
with the jack assembly to remove the
wheel trim. 11. Loosen each wheel lug nut one-half
turn counterclockwise, but do not
remove them until the wheel is raised
off the ground.
12. If your vehicle has a warning triangle and you are jacking the vehicle on the
roadside shoulder, set the warning
triangle upright on the shoulder of the
road facing the direction of oncoming
traffic. 13. Arrows depict vehicle jacking points
on the underside of the vehicle at the
locations shown above. The warning
label on the jack depicts the details.
14. Find the arrows embossed on the vehicle downward flange next to the
tire you are changing.
15. Position the jack so that the vehicle downward flange rests in the jack
saddle flange between the arrows,
as shown above. Raise the vehicle by
using the lug wrench to turn the jack
nut clockwise. Once the flat tire is off
the ground, remove the lug nuts with
the lug wrench.

wrench pin. Swing the wrench
upwards, adjust the jack height until
the wrench hook engages to the hole
on the jack. Turn the hex nut
clockwise by hand until secure.
Re-position the jack kit assembly into
the original vehicle position and
secure with the plastic wing nut. Make
sure the jack is fastened securely
before you drive. 20. Unblock the wheel and retrieve the
warning triangle.
Stowing the flat tire
You cannot store the full-sized road wheel
in the temporary spare tire well.
1. Find the flat tire retainer strap tucked inside the jack channel. Lower the
carpeted load floor.
2. Stow the flat tire in the cargo area on the load floor with the wheel facing up.
Secure the flat tire with the retainer
strap by following the next steps. 3. Locate the rear left side and right side
cargo tie-down rings. Push the loop end
of the retainer strap through one cargo
tie-down ring. Thread the non-loop end
through the loop.

tie-down and pull tight.
6. Secure the flat tire by tying a 2-half hitch knot. WHEEL NUTS
WARNING: When you install a
wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt
or foreign materials present on the
mounting surfaces of the wheel or the
surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make
sure to secure any fasteners that attach
the rotor to the hub so they do not
interfere with the mounting surfaces of
the wheel. Installing wheels without
correct metal-to-metal contact at the
wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to
come off while your vehicle is in motion,
resulting in loss of vehicle control,
personal injury or death. lb.ft (Nm)
