Caution

Wheel covers will not fit on the

to put a wheel cover on the
compact spare, the cover or the

Storing a Flat or Spare Tire
and Tools

{

Warning

Storing a jack, a tire, or other
equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.

Storing a Flat or Spare Tire and
Tools with a Screw in Fastener

1. Remove the extension bolt

from the foam holder.

2. Screw the extension bolt onto

the end of the spare tire stow
bolt by hand.

3. Replace the foam, jack, and

tools in their original storage
location.

4. Remove the insulator pad,

if equipped, and place it over
the foam holder to protect the
wheel of the flat tire from
the jack.

5. Place the tire over the

extension bolt facing up.

6. Turn the retainer nut clockwise

to secure the tire.

7. Place the floor cover on the

wheel.

The compact spare is for temporary
use only. Replace the compact
spare tire with a full-size tire as
soon as you can.

Compact Spare Tire

{

Warning

Driving with more than one
compact spare tire at a time could
result in loss of braking and
handling. This could lead to a
crash and you or others could be
injured. Use only one compact
spare tire at a time.

If this vehicle has a compact spare
tire, it was fully inflated when new;
however, it can lose air over time.
Check the inflation pressure
regularly. It should be 420 kPa
(60 psi).
