wheel bolts, mounting surfaces,

Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident. When
changing a wheel, remove any rust
or dirt from places where the wheel
attaches to the vehicle. In an
emergency, a cloth or a paper towel
can be used; however, use a scraper
or wire brush later to remove all
rust or dirt.
8. Put the wheel nuts back on with
the rounded end of the nuts
toward the wheel after mounting
the spare tyre.
{
Warning
Never use oil or grease on bolts or
nuts because the nuts might come
loose. The vehicle's wheel could fall
off, causing a crash.
9. Tighten each wheel nut by hand.
Then use the wheel wrench to
tighten the nuts until the wheel
is held against the hub.
10. Turn the wheel wrench
anticlockwise to lower the
vehicle. Lower the jack
completely.
