“Torque Specifications” in “Technical
Specifications.”If in doubt about the
correct tightness, have them checked
with a torque wrench by an authorized
dealer or service station.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a
collision or hard stop, could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the
jack parts and the spare tire in the places
provided.
7. Install the wheel center cap and remove
the wheel blocks. Do not install chrome or
aluminum wheel center caps on the spare
wheel. This may result in cap damage.

Stow the replaced tire, jack, and tools as
previously described.
9. Adjust the tire pressure when possible.
To Stow The Flat Or Spare
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a
collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the
jack parts and the spare tire in the places
provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire re-
paired or replaced immediately.
1. Turn the wheel so that the valve stem is
facing upward and toward the rear of the
vehicle for convenience in checking the
spare tire inflation. Slide the wheel re-
tainer through the center of the wheel.
2. Lift the spare tire with one hand to give
clearance to tilt the retainer at the end of
the cable and position it properly across
the wheel opening.
3. Attach the lug wrench to the extension
tubes with the curved angle facing away
from the vehicle. Insert the extension
tubes through the access hole between
the lower tailgate and the top of the bum-
per and into the winch mechanism tube.
4. Rotate the lug wrench handle clockwise
until the wheel is drawn into place against
the underside of the vehicle. Continue to
rotate until you feel the winch mechanism
slip, or click three or four times. It cannot
be overtightened. Push against the tire
several times to ensure it is firmly in
place.
NOTE:
The winch mechanism is designed for use
with the extension tube only. Use of an air
wrench or other power tools is not recom-
mended and can damage the winch.
Reinstalling The Jack And Tools
1. Tighten the jack all the way down by
turning the jack turn-screw counterclock-
wise until the jack is snug.
2. Position the jack and tool bag. Make sure
the lug wrench is under the jack near the
jack turn-screw.
3. Secure the tool bag straps to the jack.
