Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire
If the wheel has a center cap, use the handle of the
folding wrench to pry it off. Then, with the other end of
the folding wrench, loosen the nuts.
If your vehicle has the plastic bolt-on wheel covers,
loosen the bolts completely using the folding wrench,
and remove the wheel cover.
Once the center cap and/or wheel cover are removed,
use the following steps to remove the flat tire and install
the spare tire.
1. Loosen the wheel nuts
using the folding
wrench, but do not
remove them.
Turn the handle
counterclockwise about
180 degrees, then
flip the handle back to
the starting position.
This avoids taking
the wrench off the lug
nut for each turn.
