When reinstalling the nut caps on aluminum wheels, tighten the caps snug with the wheel wrench. Storing the Flat Tire and Tools CAUTION: Storing a jack, a tire or other equipment in the passenger compartment of the vehicle could cause injury. In a sudden stop or collision, loose equipment could strike someone. Store all these in the proper place. After you've put the compact spare tire on your vehicle, you'll need to store the flat tire in your trunk. Store the flat tire as far forward in the trunk as possible. Store the jack and wheel wrench in their compartment in the trunk. For storage, the jack must be raised until the screw end is flush with the edge of the jack. Then continue tightening one-quarter turn for plastic caps, or one-eighth turn for steel caps. Do not overtighten. If you have aluminum wheels with a center cover that hides the wheel nuts, when reinstalling the center cover do not use a hammer or mallet, as they could damage the cover. 5-27
