lower the spare tire to the ground. Continue to
turn the wheel wrench until the spare tire can be
pulled out from under the vehicle.
If the spare tire does not lower to the ground,

later in this section.5. The wheel wrench has
a hook that allows you
to pull the hoist
cable towards you to
assist in reaching
the spare tire.

extensions (D), and the wheel wrench (E).1. If your vehicle has
wheel nut caps, loosen
them by turning the
