Stowing a flat tire
Replace the flat tire in the spare tire well.
Screw the tire's retaining bolt back on.
Note
If the retaining bolt becomes dislodged from its lower attachment point in the body under the spare tire, replace it in the hole and turn clockwise to secure it again.
Return the tools to their correct positions in the foam block and put the foam block back in the vehicle.
Then lower the trunk/cargo compartment floor and place the punctured tire in the trunk/cargo compartment.
