To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the
vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious injury.
NOTE:
Do not install the wheel cover on the inflatable spare tire.
7. Leave the vehicle on the jack and start inflating the inflatable spare after the tire has been
mounted to the vehicle. Secure the wheel to the hub by tightening the nuts with wrench. After
inflation, once the vehicle is lowered you will have a second opportunity to "torque" the lug nuts.
8. Inflate the tire to the prescribed pressure 60 psi (4.2 Bar) using the Portable Air Compressor
or Tire Service Kit if equipped. Refer to "Portable Air Compressor" in this section for usage
procedure if equipped. Refer to "Tire Service Kit For Inflating Tire" in this section for usage
procedure if equipped.
9. Lower the vehicle once the inflatable Spare has reached its pressure and the compressor-hose
has been removed from the tire valve.
10. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for
increased leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until each nut has been tightened
twice. The correct tightness of each lug nut is 100 ft-lbs (135 N·m). If in doubt about the
correct tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by your authorized dealer or
service station.
11. Lower the jack to its fully-closed position.
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the occupants of
the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the places provided. Have the
deflated (flat) tire repaired or replaced immediately.
12. Place the deflated (flat) tire and foam tray cover assembly in the rear cargo area. Do not stow
the deflated tire in the inflatable spare tire location. Have the full-sized tire repaired or
replaced, as soon as possible.

the storage are must be threaded through the lower part of the jack. Then turn the Jack Screw
clockwise to secure it in place.
