8. Lower Vehicle and Tighten Nuts

handle counterclockwise. When the vehicle is

tighten the wheel nuts securely. At the first
available opportunity, the wheel nut torque
should be checked with a suitable torque
wrench.

AFTER CHANGING WHEELS
The pressure of the spare tyre should be
checked at the first available opportunity. If any
doubt exists as to the tyre pressure, the vehicle
should be driven slowly to the nearest service
station and the tyre pressure checked and
adjusted as required.
If the valve cap is lost from any of the valves,
a replacement should be obtained and fitted at
the first available opportunity. The valve cap
prevents the ingress of dirt which may cause
the valve to stick and therefore leak and is part
of the valve sealing function.
Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and jack
handle as well tools are correctly located in the
boot of the vehicle to prevent damage and
noise.
