Removing the Flat Tire and Installing
the Spare Tire
1. Do a safety check before proceeding.
See Changing a Flat Tire on page 6‑70.
2. If your vehicle has wheel covers, turn the four
plastic caps counterclockwise by hand or by using
the wheel wrench. The plastic nuts do not come off
of the cover.
3. Remove the wheel cover using the flat end of the
jack handle. Pry along the edge of the wheel cover
until it comes off.
Store the wheel cover in the cargo area until you
have the flat tire repaired or replaced.
4. Turn the wheel nuts counterclockwise to loosen
them. Do not remove them yet.
