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 the plastic caps hand snug, then tighten 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.
