Vehicle Care

4. When the compact spare tire is

almost in the stored position,
turn the tire so the valve is
toward the rear of the vehicle.

This position helps when
checking the air pressure in the
compact spare tire.

5. Raise the tire fully against the

underside of the vehicle.
Continue turning the wrench
until you feel more than two
clicks. This indicates that the
compact spare tire is secure
and the cable is tight. The
spare tire hoist cannot be
overtightened.

6. Make sure the tire is stored

securely. Push, pull, and then
try to turn the tire. If the tire
moves, use the wrench to
tighten the cable.
