Vehicle Care

7. Raise the vehicle by turning the

wrench clockwise in the jack.
Raise the vehicle far enough
off the ground so that there is
enough room for the spare tire
to fit under the wheel well.

8. Remove all the wheel nuts and

the flat tire.

9. Remove the plastic spare tire

heat shield by pulling the
rubber latch. Store the plastic
spare tire heat shield. See

Storing the Spare Tire

later in

this section for more
information.

Warning

Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident. When
changing a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where the
wheel attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, a cloth or a paper
towel can be used; however, use
a scraper or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.

{

Warning

Never use oil or grease on bolts
or nuts because the nuts might
come loose. The vehicle's wheel
could fall off, causing a crash.

10. Remove any rust or dirt from

the wheel bolts, mounting
surfaces, and spare wheel.

11. Place the spare tire on the

wheel mounting surface.

12. Put the nuts on by hand by

turning them clockwise until the
wheel is held against the
mounting surface. Make sure
the rounded end is toward the
wheel.

13. Lower the vehicle by attaching

the wrench to the jack and
turning the wrench
counterclockwise. Lower the
jack completely.

{

Warning

Wheel nuts that are improperly or
incorrectly tightened can cause
the wheels to become loose or
come off. The wheel nuts should
be tightened with a torque wrench
to the proper torque specification
after replacing. Follow the torque
specification supplied by the
aftermarket manufacturer when
using accessory locking wheel
nuts. See
