The size difference may also cause
damage to the rear differential, so do
not mount the compact spare on the
rear. If either rear tire goes flat,
remove the front tire on that same
side, mount the compact spare tire
on the front, then mount the front
tire on the rear.
Park the vehicle on firm, level, and
non-slippery ground. Put the
transmission in reverse. Apply the
parking brake.
Turn on the hazard warning lights,
and turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK (0) position. Have your
passenger get out of the vehicle
while you change the tire.
Open the trunk. Lift up the tool
box lid, and take the jack, the
wheel nut wrench, and the
extension out of the tool box.
The compact spare tire is smaller
than a standard tire, which will affect
the vehicle’s handling. Drive
cautiously when this spare is
mounted on your vehicle.
If you have a flat tire while driving,
stop in a safe place to change it.
Drive slowly along the shoulder until
you get to an exit or an area to stop
that is far away from the traffic lanes.

The vehicle can easily roll off
the jack, seriously injuring
anyone underneath.
Follow the directions for
changing a tire exactly, and
never get under the vehicle
when it is supported only by the
jack.
Use the jack that came with your
vehicle. If you try to raise another
vehicle with this jack or use another
jack to raise your vehicle, the vehicle or
jack can be damaged.
