To access the spare tyre and tools:
1. Open the tailgate. See Tailgate 0 18.
2. Remove the cargo cover, if equipped.
3. Lift the load floor.
Insert the hook (2) into the opening on
the tailgate (1) to hold it open.
4. Turn the retainer nut anticlockwise and
remove the spare tyre.
Place the spare tyre next to the tyre
being changed.
5. The jack and tools are stored below the
spare tire.
Remove them from their container and
place them near the tyre being changed.
Removing the Flat Tyre and Installing
the Spare Tyre
1. Do a safety check before proceeding. See
If a Tyre Goes Flat 0 299.
2. For vehicles equipped with a wheel cover
or centre cap, pull the cover or centre
cap away from the wheel to remove it.
Store the wheel cover in the cargo area
until the flat tyre is repaired or replaced.
If the vehicle has a centre cap with
wheel nut caps, the wheel nut caps are
designed to stay with the centre cap
after they are loosened.
Remove the entire centre cap if the
wheel has a smooth centre cap. Place
the chisel end of the wheel wrench in
the slot on the wheel, and gently prize
it off.
