Spare Tire Removal Instructions
• The spare tire is located under the
vehicle beneath the center console area.
1. Assemble the spare tire tools into a
T-handle and place the square end
over the spare tire winch drive nut.
2. Rotate the nut to the left until the winch mechanism stops turning freely. This will allow
enough slack in the cable to allow you to pull the spare tire out from underneath the
vehicle.
3. Assemble the winch handle exten-
sions to form the spare tire hook, and
pull the spare tire from under the
vehicle.
NOTE:
If either front tire is flat it may be neces-
sary to jack up the vehicle to remove the
compact spare tire/cover assembly from
under the vehicle.
4. Stand the tire/cover assembly upright and remove the wheel spacer by squeezing the
winch retaining tabs together. Push the retainer through the spare tire to release it
from the wheel.
