Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire
1. If your vehicle has plastic wheel covers, use
the wheel wrench to loosen the plastic wheel
nut caps.
Once you have loosened the plastic wheel nut
caps with the wheel wrench, you can finish
loosening them with your fingers. The
plastic nut caps do not come off.
2. Using the flat end of the wheel wrench, pry
along the edge of the wheel cover until it
comes off.
3. Use the wheel wrench to loosen all the wheel
nuts. Do not remove them yet.
4. It is recommended that you do a safety check
before preceding. See Changing a Flat Tire
on page 336 for more information.
