CAUTION
l
Upon installation of the T155/90D16 size
spare wheel, the ground clearance is re-
duced as the tyre is smaller in diameter
than the standard tyre.
When passing over the projections on the
road, take care not to damage the vehi-
cle’s undercarriage.
l
Do not install more than one temporary
spare wheel at the same time.
To remove the spare wheel

On vehicles with a T155/90D16 size spare wheel
1. Open the tailgate and remove the tyre hanger
installation bolt covers (A) with the jack bar.
Refer to “Split tailgate: To open” on page
1-31.
2. Loosen the tyre hanger installation bolt by
turning it anticlockwise with the wheel nut
wrench.
CAUTION
l
Be careful as you loosen the tyre hanger
installation bolt. If you loosen it too far,
the hook may come out and let the tempo-
rary spare wheel fall.
3. Raise the lower gate until it locks properly in
position with a click. Refer to “Split tailgate:
To close” on page 1-31.
4. Lift up the tyre hanger (B) at the section indi-
cated by the arrow in the diagram, remove it
from the hook (C), lower it, and then take the
tyre off the tyre hanger.
CAUTION
l
When removing the tyre hanger from the
hook or hanging it back on the hook, hold
the tyre hanger carefully so that it does
not drop on your feet.
NOTE
l
Put the spare wheel under the vehicle body
near the jack. This makes it safer if the jack
slips out of position.
