If needed, use the flat end of the
wheel wrench and pry along the
edge of the cover until it comes off.
The edge of the wheel cover could
be sharp, so do not try to remove it
with your bare hands. Do not drop
the cover or lay it face down, as it
could become scratched or
damaged. Store the wheel cover in
the trunk until the flat tire is repaired
or replaced.
Once you have removed the wheel
cover, use the following procedure
to remove the flat tire and install the
spare tire.
1. Do a safety check before
proceeding. See
for more information.
2. Turn the wheel wrench
counterclockwise once on each
wheel nut to loosen it. Do not
remove them yet.
3. Place the jack near the flat tire.
4. Place the wheel blocks on both
sides of the tire at the opposite
corner of the tire being
changed. See
for proper wheel
block placement.
5. Place the jack under the
vehicle.
6. If you have a coin/pierce jack,
attach the jack handle
extension to the jack by sliding
the hook through the end of
the jack.
If you have a hex head jack,
place the hex tube end of the
wrench over the hex head of
the jack.
Caution
Make sure that the jack lift head
is in the correct position or you
may damage your vehicle. The
repairs would not be covered by
your warranty.
