spare wheel LINCOLN MKZ 2017 Owner's Manual

11. The vehicle jacking points are shown
here, and can be identified by the
triangle markings on the molding. The
triangle marking may be located on the
side or the underside of the molding.
The jacking points are identified on
vehicles without moldings by a pair of
arrows on the metal flange pointing to
the jacking point between them. Details
are depicted on the warning label on
the jack. 12.
Place the jack at the jacking point next
to the tire you are changing. Turn the
jack handle clockwise until the wheel
is completely off the ground.
13. Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench. 14.
Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing
outward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the
wheel is snug against the hub. Do not
fully tighten the lug nuts until the wheel
has been lowered. If you are using the
temporary tire, the lug nut washers will
not appear to be flush with the rim. This
is normal only when using the
temporary spare tire.
15. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise. 361

Stowing the Flat Tire Using the
Retainer Strap (If Equipped)
You can temporarily stow the full-size road
wheel in the spare tire compartment.

Locate the jack bolt-down bracket. Push
the retainer strap through the jack
bolt-down bracket.
3. Put the jack and lug wrench away. Make
sure the jack is fastened so it does not
rattle when you drive.
