Warning
Storing a jack, a tire, or other
equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.
1. Put the tire on the ground at the
rear of the vehicle with the valve
stem pointed down.
2. Pull the retaining bar through the
center of the wheel, making sure
it is properly attached.
3. Pull the wheel toward the rear of
the vehicle, keeping the cable
tight.
4. Open the passenger side
rear door.
5. Insert the chisel end of the hoist
handle, on an angle, through the
hole in the rear floor panel
above the bumper.
6. Turn the wheel wrench
clockwise to fully raise the tire
against the underside of the
vehicle. Continue turning the
wheel wrench until the tire is
secure and the cable is tight.
Two clicks should occur. The
spare tire hoist cannot be
overtightened.
7. Make sure the tire is stored
securely. Push, pull (1), and then
try to turn (2) the tire. If the tire
moves, use the wheel wrench to
tighten the cable.
Two clicks mean the tire is up all
the way.
8. Return the jacking equipment to
the proper location. Secure the
items and replace the jack cover.
