spare tire. It will not fit. Store the wheel cover in

the wheel cover or nut caps at this point.
When reinstalling the nut caps on aluminum wheels,
tighten the caps snug with the wheel wrench. Then
continue tightening one-quarter turn for plastic caps, or
one-eighth turn for steel caps. Do not overtighten.

CAUTION:
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.
After you have put the compact spare tire on your
vehicle, you will need to store the flat tire in your trunk.
Store the flat tire as far forward in the trunk as
possible. Store the jack and wheel wrench in their
compartment in the trunk. For storage, the jack must be
raised until the screw end is flush with the edge of
the jack.
