If needed, finish loosening them
with your fingers. The plastic nut
caps will not come off.
If needed, use the flat end of the
wheel wrench and pry along the
edge of the cover until it comes off.
The edge of the wheel cover could
be sharp, so do not try to remove
it with your bare hands. Do not
drop the cover or lay it face down,
as it could become scratched or
damaged. Store the wheel cover
in the trunk until the flat tire is
repaired or replaced.
Once you have removed the wheel
cover, use the following procedure
to remove the flat tire and install the
spare tire.
1. Do a safety check before
proceeding. See If a Tire
Goes Flat on page 10 ‑ 65 .
2. Turn the wheel wrench
counterclockwise once on
each wheel nut to loosen it.
Do not remove them yet.
3. For all wheel types, find
the jacking location using
the diagram above and the
corresponding jacking notches
located on the bottom side of the
plastic molding. The notches in
the plastic molding are marked
with a triangle shape to help you
find them.
The front location is about
17.7 cm (7.0 in) from the rear
edge of the front wheel well.
The rear location is about
11.4 cm (4.5 in) from the front
edge of the rear wheel well.
