Chevrolet 2012 Colorado Owner's Manual page 329

Storing a jack, a tire, or other
equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.
Store the tire under the rear of the
vehicle in the spare tire carrier.
1. Put the tire on the ground at the
rear of the vehicle with the valve
stem pointed down.
2. Tilt the retainer downward and
through the center wheel
opening. Make sure the retainer
is fully seated across the
underside of the wheel.
3. Assemble the wheel wrench, the
jack handle extensions, and the
jack handle, as shown.
