CAUTION
■
Replacing a flat tire
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of death or serious injury.
●
Lower the spare tire completely to the ground before removing it from under the
vehicle.
●
Do not try to remove the wheel ornament by hand. Take due care in handling the
ornament to avoid unexpected personal injury.
●
Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
The oil or grease can cause the wheel nuts to loosen, causing a serious accident.
Remove any oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
●
Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 83 ft•lbf (112 N•m, 11.5
kgf•m) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
Failure to follow these precautions could cause the nuts to loosen and the wheels
may fall off, which could lead to an accident causing death or serious injury.
●
Do not attach a heavily damaged wheel ornament, as it may fly off the wheel while
the vehicle is moving.
