Storing
the
Flat Tire and Tools
L
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.
After you’ve put the compact spare tire on your vehicle,
you’ll need to store the flat tire in your
trunk.
Use the
following procedure
to
secure the flat tire in the trunk.
Put the flat tire in the trunk
so
the side that faces out
when
it
is on the vehicle
is
facing down. The full-size
tire will not
fit
down into the well. Place it
so
the front
is
in the well and the rear is out
of
the well.
