Not your exact model year but operates the same. On my 99 Silhouette, you open the hatch door, there is a half, to 3/4 circle that the tool from the jack fits in. Turn it, and the tire will come down. Depending on where you live, it might be rusty and sticky, so it won't want to come down very easy.

I hope this is helpful to you!
