CAUTION
●
When lowering the vehicle, make
sure all portions of your body and all
other persons around will not be
injured as the vehicle is lowered to
the ground.
●
Have the wheel nuts tightened with
torque wrench to 103
N•m
(10.5k
gf•m
),
as soon as possible after changing
wheels. Otherwise, the nuts may
loosen and the wheels may fall off,
which could cause a serious
accident.
After changing wheels, check the air
pressure of the replaced tire.
Adjust
the air pressure to the specification
designated in Section 8. If the pressure is
lower than specified, drive slowly to the
nearest station and fill to the correct
pressure.
Do not forget to reinstall the tire inflation valve
cap as dirt and moisture could get into the
valve core and possibly cause air leakage. If
the cap is missing, have a new one put on as
soon as possible.
Re-stowing all the tools, jack, and flat tire
securely
As soon after changing wheels as possible,
tighten the wheel nuts to the
torque specified in Section 8 with a torque
wrench. Have a technician repair the flat tire.
CAUTION

the jack, and flat tire are securely
placed in place in their storage
location to reduce the possibility of
personal injury during a collision or
suddenly braking.
If your vehicle become stuck
If you vehicle becomes stuck in snow,
mud, or sand, you may attempt to road the
vehicle free by moving it forward and
backward.
