Storing the Tools
To store the tools:
1. Return the tools (wheel wrench,
jack handle, and jack handle
extensions) to the tool bag. Use the
velcro straps to secure the tool bag
under the load floor in the
cargo area.
2. Position the jack and wheel blocks
in the driver side trim panel over
the wheelhouse.
3. Turn the jack knob clockwise until
the jack is secured tight in the
mounting bracket. Be sure to
position the holes in the base of
the jack onto the pin in the
mounting bracket.
4. Close the trim panel door.
Storing a Flat Tire Inside of the
Vehicle
If the vehicle has 275/60R20 or 275/
50R22 size tires, the flat tire must be
stored inside of the vehicle in the
cargo area using the flat tire secure
strap inside the glove box.
1. Store the tools. See Storing the
Tools earlier in this section.
2. The third row seat must be folded
down to provide sufficient space to
store the flat tire. If the third row
seat cannot be folded down, the
flat tire cannot be stored and must
be left in a safe location, to be
picked up at a later time.
3. Once there is sufficient space in
the rear of the vehicle, lift the flat
tire and place it on top of the load
floor, with the valve stem
pointed up.
