Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire
1. If your vehicle has an aluminum wheel with a center
hub cap that hides the wheel nuts, remove the hub
cap by using the flat end of the wheel wrench to
pry it off.
If your vehicle has a steel wheel with a wheel
cover, the center hub cap must be removed first by
using the flat end of the wheel wrench to pry it
off. Once the center hub cap has been removed,
loosen the plastic nut caps with the wheel wrench.
Once the plastic nut caps have been loosened,
remove the wheel cover by hand.
When reinstalling the wheel cover, carefully line up
the tire valve stem and the notch in the wheel cover.
2. Use the wheel wrench to loosen the wheel nuts, but
do not remove them yet.
3. Attach the wheel wrench to the bolt to create a
jack handle.
