WARNING!
V erify that both retainer tabs of the wheel
spacer have been properly extended through
the center of the wheel and compact spare
tire/cover assembly . Failure to properly en-
gage both retainer tabs could result in loss of
the compact spare tire and cover assembly ,
which will cause vehicle damage and may
cause loss of vehicle control and serious
personal injury.
CAUTION!
The compact spare tire/cover assembly must
be used when the compact spare tire is
stored. Failure to use this cover could drasti-
cally reduce the life of the compact spare
tire.
4. Using the winch T-handle, rotate the drive
nut to the right until the compact spare
tire/cover assembly is drawn into place
against the underside of the vehicle.
5. Continue to rotate the nut to the right until
you hear the winch mechanism click three
times. It cannot be overtightened. Check
under the vehicle to ensure the compact
spare tire/cover assembly is positioned cor -
rectly against the underside of the vehicle.
CAUTION!
The winch mechanism is designed specifi-
cally to stow a compact spare tire only. Do not
attempt to use the winch to stow the full size
deflated tire, or any other full-size tire, as the
tire may not be held securely. Vehicle dam-
age may result.
Road Tire Installation
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2.
To ease the installation process for steel
wheels with wheel covers, install two lug nuts
on the mounting studs which are on each side
of the valve stem. Install 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.
