Storing a Flat or Spare Tire and Tools
CAUTION:
Storing a jack, a tire or other equipment in the
passenger compartment of the vehicle could

equipment could strike someone. Store all these
in the proper place.
After you’ve put the spare tire on your vehicle, you’ll
need to store the flat tire in the trunk. Use the following
procedure to secure the flat tire in the trunk.
1. Put the flat tire in
the trunk where
the spare is stored
(driver’s side
wheel well).
2. Secure the flat tire with the straps that are used to
hold the spare in place.
