Stowing a flat tire
1. Screw the spare tire's retaining bolt back
on.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to unscrew the lower part
of the retaining bolt if it is attached to the
body, as this could cause it to break.
If the retaining bolt becomes dislodged
from its lower attachment point in the
body under the spare tire, replace it in the
hole and turn clockwise to secure it again.
2. Put the tools back in their correct posi-
tions in the foam block.
3. Then lower the trunk/cargo compartment
floor and place the punctured tire in the
trunk/cargo compartment.
