to help avoid wheel surface damage. Use
the extension
and protectodguide located in foam holder. To store a
full-size tire, place the tire valve stem facing down, with
protector/guide through a wheel bolt hole, remove the
protector and attach the retainer securely. When
reinstalling the compact spare, put the protectodguide
back in the foam holder. Store the cover as
far forward
as possible.
