EXTERIOR TRIM OUTLINE

BME091656100T10
• A third-row seat that can be stowed has been adopted. Due to this the spare tire stowage position has changed. A spare tire carrier has also been adopted.
• The spare tire carrier is designed to secure the spare tire under the vehicle until it is needed.
• The spare tire carrier prevents the tire from hitting the ground, and the anchor from hitting the fuel tank or exhaust pipes.
• The carrier design incorporates safeguards which prevent the spare tire lever from being removed when:

  - The spare tire is installed on the carrier upside down.
  - A tire other than the spare tire is installed on the carrier.
  - The spare tire carrier anchor is not completely raised.

  • If the spare tire carrier's cable breaks, the carrier's hook is designed to lock the anchor and prevent the spare tire from falling.
