3. Lay the tire flat and secure the cable with wing screw by installing it
on the wing screw retainer in the floor and turning the wing screw
clockwise. You will hear an audible click when the tire is properly
secured.
4. Check that the flat tire is properly secured.
Stowing the spare tire
1. Lay the spare, inflated tire on the ground with the valve stem facing
down.
2. Insert the primary wheel retainer through the center of the wheel.
3. Use the winch mechanism to pull, and raise the tire under the vehicle.
4. Wagon only: Raise the tire by turning the lug nut wrench clockwise
until the hex nut ratchets.
Cargo van only: Raise the tire by turning the jack extension tool
clockwise with the lug nut wrench until the hex nut ratchets.
The effort to turn the jack handle increases significantly and the spare
tire carrier ratchets or slips when the tire is raised to the maximum
tightness. Tighten to the best of your ability, to the point where the
ratchet/slip occurs, if possible. The spare tire carrier will not allow you to
overtighten. If the spare tire carrier ratchets or slips with little effort,
take the vehicle to your authorized dealer for assistance at your earliest
convenience.
5. Check that the tire lies flat against the frame and is properly
tightened. Try to push or pull, then turn the tire to be sure it will not
move. Loosen and retighten, if necessary. Failure to properly stow the
spare tire may result in failure of the winch cable and loss of the tire.
NOTE:
Visually check to make sure the wheel plate is resting flat against
the tire.
6. Repeat this tightness check procedure when servicing the spare tire
pressure (every six months, per
Scheduled Maintenance Guide), or at
any time that the spare tire is disturbed through service of other
components.
