Spare Tire Removal
Fit the jack handle extension over the drive nut located in
the rear cargo area inside the vehicle. Use the lug wrench
to rotate the nut counterclockwise until the spare is on
the ground with enough slack in the cable to allow you to
pull the tire out from under the vehicle.
CAUTION!
The winch mechanism is designed for use with the
jack extension tube only. Use of an air wrench or
other power tools is not recommended and they can
damage the winch.
When the spare is clear, tilt the retainer at the end of the
cable, and pull it through the center of the wheel.
NOTE: Refer to “Compact Spare Tire” under “Tires-
General Information” in “Starting And Operating” for
information about the compact spare tire, its use, and
operation.
