WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
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
extensions 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
necessary 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.
