surface and enough clearance is obtained to
install the compact spare tire. Minimum tire
lift provides maximum stability.

16. Make sure the contact surfaces between compact spare tire and hub are clean so that
the fastening bolts will not come loose.
17. Fit the compact spare tire by inserting the first wheel bolt for two threads into the hole
closest to the valve.
18. Take the wheel wrench and tighten the wheel bolts.
19. Inflate the compact spare tire by removing the cap from its inflation valve and screwing
on the compressor inflation hose fitting. 20. Make sure that the switch on the compressor
is in the O (off) position, open the liftgate and
insert the plug into the power socket in the

Attaching Compressor To Tire
21. Inflate the compact spare tire to a pressure of 43.5 psi (3 bar).
NOTE:
If spare tire is overinflated, be sure to lower the
psi in the tire to the recommended amount by
using the deflation button on the air compressor.
22. Operate the wheel wrench on the jack to lower the vehicle.
23. Remove the jack. 24. Use the wheel wrench to fully tighten the
bolts, passing alternately from one bolt to the
diagonally opposite one.
To obtain a more accurate reading, it is advisable
to check the pressure of the compact spare tire
on the pressure gauge with the compressor off.
NOTE:
Do not stow the deflated tire in the compact
spare tire location.
The compressor was designed for inflating the
compact spare tire. Do not use it for inflating
mattresses, rafts, etc.
NOTE:

make the vehicle less stable. It could slip off
the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the
vehicle only enough to remove the tire.
CAUTION!
Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve
stem facing outward. The vehicle could be
damaged if the spare tire is mounted
incorrectly.
