Spare Tire Storage
Supplied with your new Roadtrek are two types of small keys. One is for the storage compartments, and the other is to unlock the chrome surround on
your spare tire. Find both keys, put one of each on your key ring, and carry them with you whenever you drive your Roadtrek. If you ever need to change
a tire, you will need this key.
If your new Roadtrek still has the blue protective coating on the chrome spare tire cover, remove it as soon as you can. If left on for an extended period,
particularly in the hot sun, it will become very difficult to remove.
In order to open the driver's side rear door, you must lower the spare tire.
To lower the continental kit spare tire and gain access to the driver's side rear door of the Roadtrek, unlatch the retaining spring and pull the pin out while
supporting the top of the tire with your other hand. It helps to wiggle the tire back and forth to allow the pin to slide out. Place the pin where you won't lose it,
and grasp the top of the tire with both hands. Lower it into a horizontal position to allow the driver's side rear door to open freely. The tire will latch when
horizontal.
