5. For a rear tire, place the jack and protective
cap in the slot on the rear tie-down bracket, just
forward of the rear tire (as indicated by the
triangular lift point symbol on the sill molding).
Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure
the jack is fully engaged.

6. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw
clockwise. Raise the vehicle only until the tire
just clears the surface and enough clearance is
obtained to install the spare tire. Minimum tire
lift provides maximum stability.
WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can
make the vehicle less stable. It could slip off
the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the
vehicle only enough to remove the tire.
7. Remove the lug nuts and wheel.
8. Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle
and install the lug nuts with the cone-shaped
end toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the nuts.
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the
jack, do not tighten the nuts fully until the
vehicle has been lowered.
9. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw
counterclockwise, and remove the jack and
wheel blocks.
10. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down
on the wrench while tightening for increased
leverage. Alternate nuts until each nut has
been tightened twice. The correct wheel nut
tightness is 95 ft lbs (130 N·m). If in doubt about
the correct tightness, have them checked with
a torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at
a service station.
11. Lower the jack to the fully closed position
and return it and the tools to the proper posi-
tions in the foam tray.
12. Securely store the road wheel and jack in
the cargo area.
