04 SIENNA_U (L/O 0408) CAUTION Do not remove the spare tire when jacking up the vehicle. The tire carrier and the spare tire may interfere with the jack and cause a serious accident. NOTICE z To secure spare tire clamp bolt: Do not use impact wrench, but wheel nut wrench. z After taking out or stowing the spare tire, make sure to secure the tire carrier by tightening the clamp bolt to prevent the holding bracket from hitting the under body of the vehicle during driving. z Do not store the flat spare tire with the tire carrier so it may not be held securely. 2. Loosen the spare tire clamp bolt by turning it counterclockwise with the wheel nut wrench. 3. After the tire is lowered completely to the ground, remove the holding bracket. When storing the spare tire, put it in place with the outer side of the wheel facing up. Then secure the tire, taking care that the tire goes straight up without catching on any other part, to prevent it from flying forward during a collision or sudden braking. As the tire carrier is designed for the compact spare tire, the standard tire cannot be stored there. 416 2004 SIENNA from Aug. '04 Prod. (OM45422U)
