To remove the spare tire:
1. Remove the spare tire carrier lid using a slotted screwdriver.
2. Insert the end of the jack handle extension into the lowering screw
and turn it counterclockwise with the handle, making sure the handle
remains firmly fitted onto the jack handle extension.
3. After the tire is lowered completely to the ground, remove the
holding bracket.
When storing the spare tire, put it in place with the outer side of the
wheel facing up. Then secure the tire, taking care that the tire goes
straight up without catching on any other part, to prevent it from
flying forward during a collision or sudden braking.
