angle through the hole in the rear bumper and into
the funnel-shaped guide.
5. Turn the wheel wrench clockwise to raise the tire
part way up. Make sure the retainer is seated in the
wheel opening and the valve stem is pointed down.
Continue raising the tire, watch to make sure it does
not get caught on anything on the underbody. If the
tire does get caught, loosen two or three turns and
push and pull the tire and then retighten.
Repeat this procedure as many times as needed to
ensure proper stowage.
6. When the tire is properly seated to the underbody,
continue turning the wheel wrench clockwise until
you hear two clicks or feel it skip twice. You cannot
overtighten the cable.
