CAUTION!
Be sure to mount the inflatable spare tire with the
valve stem facing outward. The vehicle could be dam-
aged if the inflatable spare tire is mounted incorrectly.
NOTE: Do not install the wheel cover on the inflatable
spare tire.
7. Leave the vehicle on the jack and start inflating the inflatable spare after the tire has been mounted to the
vehicle. Secure the wheel to the hub by tightening the nuts with wrench. After inflation, once the vehicle is
lowered you will have a second opportunity to “torque”
the lug nuts.
8. Inflate the tire to the prescribed pressure 60 psi (4.2 Bar) using the Portable Air Compressor or Tire Service Kit if
equipped. Refer to “Portable Air Compressor” in this
section for usage procedure if equipped. Refer to “Tire
Service Kit For Inflating Tire” in this section for usage
procedure if equipped.
9. Lower the vehicle once the inflatable Spare has reached its pressure and the compressor-hose has been removed
from the tire valve.
10. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until
each nut has been tightened twice. Refer to “Torque
Specifications” in “Technical Specifications” for proper
wheel lug nut torque. If in doubt about the correct
tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by
your authorized dealer or at a service station.

11. Lower the jack to its fully-closed position.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or
hard stop could endanger the occupants of the vehicle.
Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the
places provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired
or replaced immediately.
12. Place the deflated (flat) tire and foam tray cover assembly in the rear cargo area. Do not stow the
deflated tire in the inflatable spare tire location. Have
the full-sized tire repaired or replaced, as soon as
possible.

the lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward
the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
3. Align the valve notch in the wheel cover with the valve stem on the wheel. Install the cover by hand, snapping
the cover over the two lug nuts. Do not use a hammer or
excessive force to install the cover. 4. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end
of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten all the lug
nuts until the wheel sits flush onto the hub and there is
no play. The nuts will have to be fully tightened once the
vehicle is lowered. Tightening an improperly seated
wheel under vehicle load can damage the threads, cause
vibration, and undermine safety.

To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do
not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may
result in serious injury.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
6. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until each
nut has been tightened twice. Refer to “Torque Specifi-
cations” in “Technical Specifications” for proper wheel
lug nut torque. If in doubt about the correct tightness,
have them checked with a torque wrench by an autho-
rized dealer or at a service station.

•The Sealant Bottle is a one tire application use and needs
to be replaced after each use. Always replace these
components immediately at your original equipment
vehicle dealer.
• When the Tire Service Kit sealant is in a liquid form,
clean water, and a damp cloth will remove the material
from the vehicle or tire and wheel components. Once the
sealant dries, it can easily be peeled off and properly
discarded.
• For optimum performance, make sure the valve stem on
the wheel is free of debris before connecting the Tire
Service Kit.
• The Tire Service Kit Sealant is only intended to seal
punctures less than 1/4 inch (6 mm) diameter in the
tread/contact surface of your vehicle’s tires.
