Follow the diagram above for the
correct rotation pattern.
After rotation, adjust the front and
rear tire pressures according to the
tire information label.
Don’t include the spare tire in your
tire rotation.
If you rotate your tires or replace
any of your tires or tire pressure
sensors, the tire pressure monitor
will need to be reset.
See "Tire Pressure Monitor" earlier
in this section for more informa-
tion.
CAUTION
Rust or dirt on the wheel, or on
the parts to which it is fastened,
can make the wheel nuts
become loose after a time. The
wheel could come off and cause
an accident. When you change
a wheel, remove any rust or dirt
from the places where the
wheel attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, you could use a
cloth or a paper towel to do
this; but be sure to use a scraper
or wire brush later, if necessary,
to get all the rust or dirt off.
CAUTION
Incorrect wheel nuts or
improperly tightened wheel
nuts can cause the wheel to
become loose and even come
off. This could lead to an
accident. Be sure to use the
correct wheel nuts. If you have
to replace them, be sure to get
the right kind. Stop somewhere
as soon as you can and have the
nuts tightened with a torque
wrench to the proper torque.
When installing aftermarket
locking wheel nuts, follow the
torque specification provided
by the wheel nut manufacturer.
