When you replace the compact spare with a full-size
tire, reinstall the bolt-on wheel covers or the center cap,
which ever your vehicle has. Tighten them “hand
tight” over the wheel nuts, using the folding wrench.

1. Flip up the D-ring located in the rear cargo area.

2. Lay the tire in the rear cargo area of the vehicle with

the valve stem up with the center hole of the tire
over the D-ring.

For vehicles with aluminum wheels, remove the
center cap by tapping the back of the cap with the
folding wrench.

3. Remove the J-hook and the wing nut from the back

of the jack access door. Assemble the wing nut and
the J-hook.

4. Install the wing nut and the J-hook to the D-ring

through the center hole of the tire.

5. Tighten the wing nut to secure the tire to the floor.

Push and pull on the tire to make sure the tire is
secure and does not move.

6. Put back all tools as they were stored in the jack

storage compartment and put the compartment
cover back on.

Slip the tabs on the side of the compartment cover
into the cover opening. Push the cover in place
and push down the tabs on the cover so that it rests
in the groove. This secures the cover in place.
