next to the tire you are changing. Turn
the jack handle clockwise until the
wheel is completely off the ground.

wrench.
12. 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.

handle counterclockwise.
14. Remove the jack and fully tighten the
lug nuts in the order shown. See
Changing a Road Wheel (page 305).

securely before you drive.
