1. Park your vehicle in a safe and flat location.
2. Engage the parking brake.
3. If your vehicle has a hubcap, use the lug wrench to loosen the hubcap lug nuts.
4. Use the lug wrench to loosen the lug nuts on the spare tire. Do not remove the lug nuts completely.
5. Use a car jack to lift your vehicle off the ground. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for the proper jacking points.
6. Once your vehicle is raised high enough, remove the lug nuts and take off the spare tire.
7. Lower the vehicle using the car jack.

10. Test the lug nuts to make sure they are tight.
It's important to note that this process may vary depending on your specific vehicle. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for detailed instructions on how to remove the spare tire. Additionally, it is always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the location and operation of your spare tire and lug wrench before you need to use them.
