Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire
You will need to remove the wheel cover or hubcap to
reach the wheel bolts.
For steel wheels with full plastic covers and aluminum
wheels with large circular center caps, do the following:
1. Loosen all plastic caps
by turning the wheel
wrench
counterclockwise. Do
not try to remove
plastic caps from the
cover or center cap.
2. Pull the cover or center cap away from the wheel
and place it in the trunk.
When reinstalling full plastic covers or center caps,
tighten all plastic caps hand snug with the aid of
the wheel wrench and tighten them with the wheel
wrench an additional one-quarter of a turn.
1. Use the wheel wrench to loosen all the wheel nuts.
Do not remove them yet.
2. Attach the wheel
wrench to the jack bolt
head and rotate the
wheel wrench
clockwise. That will
raise the lift head
a little.
