GMC savana 2000 Benutzerhandbuch

Your spare tire is stored underneath the rear of your
vehicle. You will use the ratchet and extension to lower
the spare tire.

A flat rear tire reduces clearance to remove the spare
tire. If there is less than 12 inches (30.48 cm) between
the ground and the rear bumper or any trailer hitch, jack
up the vehicle until the flat tire is off the ground. (See
“Removing the Flat Tire” and “Installing the Spare
Tire,” Steps 4 through 8, in this section.)

Unless your vehicle has a flat rear tire, do not remove or
restore a tire from/to a storage position under the vehicle
while the vehicle is supported by a jack. Always tighten
the tire fully against the underside of the vehicle 
when restoring.

If you have a vehicle which was completed from a cab
and chassis, refer to the information from the body
supplier/installer.

The spare tire is a full

-

size tire, like the other tires on

your vehicle.

For cargo vans, and all
passenger vans except those
with the 15

-

passenger

seating arrangement, the
jack is secured in the rear
passenger side corner of 
the vehicle.

Remove the retaining wing bolt and lift it off the
mounting bracket. Set the jack and jacking equipment
near the flat tire.
