NOTE
l
Flange nuts can be temporarily used on the
steel spare wheel as shown in the illustra-
tion, but return to the original wheel and tyre
as soon as possible.
CAUTION
l Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or
the nuts, or they will tighten too much.
NOTE
l If all 4 aluminium wheels are changed to
steel wheels. e. g. when fitting winter tyres,
use tapered nuts.
8. Lower the vehicle slowly by rotating the
wheel nut wrench anticlockwise until the
tyre touches the ground.
9. Tighten the nuts in the order shown in
the illustration until each nut has been
tightened to the torque listed here.
Tightening torque 88 to 108 N•m
CAUTION
l Never use your foot or a pipe extension for
extra force in the wheel nut wrench. If you
do so, you will tighten the nut too much.
10. On vehicles with wheel covers, install
the covers (refer to “Wheel covers” on
page 8-13).
11. Lower and remove the jack, then store
the jack, flat tyre, and chocks. Have your
