If needed, finish loosening them
with your fingers. The plastic nut
caps will not come off.
If needed, use the flat end of the
wheel wrench and pry along the
edge of the cover until it comes off.
The edge of the wheel cover could
be sharp, so do not try to remove it
with your bare hands. Do not drop
the cover or lay it face down, as it
could become scratched or
damaged. Store the wheel cover in
the trunk until the flat tire is repaired
or replaced.
Once you have removed the wheel
cover, use the following procedure
to remove the flat tire and install the
spare tire.
1. Do a safety check before
proceeding. See If a Tire Goes
Flat on page 10-66 for more
information.
2. Turn the wheel wrench
counterclockwise once on each
wheel nut to loosen it. Do not
remove them yet.
3. Place the jack near the flat tire.
4. Place the wheel blocks on both
sides of the tire at the opposite
corner of the tire being changed.
See If a Tire Goes Flat on
page 10-66 for proper wheel
block placement.
5. If this vehicle is the RS model,
locate the front or rear jack
cover on the rocker molding
near the tire being changed.
Place your hand behind the
edge of the cover on the rocker
molding. Pull down and out to
remove the cover.
The cover will remain attached
to the molding by a tether.
6. Place the jack under the vehicle.
