A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or
hard stop could injure someone in the vehicle. Always
stow the jack parts and the extra tire and wheel in the
places provided.
7. Install the wheel center cap and remove the wheel
blocks. Do not install chrome or aluminum wheel center

NOTE: Do not oil wheel studs. For chrome wheels, do not
substitute with chrome plated wheel nuts.
