When trouble arises
Remove the center wheel ornament from
the flat tire by pushing from the reverse
side, and reinstall it.
Lay down the tire with the valve
stem facing up
Install the spare wheel cover.
Install the holding bracket . Turn
the jack handle extension clock-
wise to take up slack in the chain.
Then, check to ensure the holding bracket
is centered in the wheel hub.
Raise the tire.
Place a rag under the jack handle to pro-
tect the rear bumper.
While raising, secure the tire, taking care
that the tire goes straight up without catch-
ing on any surrounding part, to prevent it
from flying forward during a collision or
sudden braking.
After the tire goes half way up, check that
the suspended chain is able to enter the
tire hole, for proper storage.
