10. Lower car and remove jack.
Tighten the five bolts evenly by
going around the wheel and
tightening every other bolt until
all the bolts are tight. Observe
a tightening torque of 10 m kp/
72 Ib-ft.
11. C orrect tire pressure.
Tire Inflation Pressure
A table (see fuel fille r flap or last
page) lists the tire inflation pres­
sures specified fo r summer and
w inter tires as well as for the vary­
ing operating conditions.
Tire pressures listed for light loads
are minimum values offering high
driving com fort. Increased inflation
pressures for heavy loads produce
favorable handling characteristics
with lighter loads and are perfectly
permissible. The ride of the vehicle,
however, w ill become somewhat
harder.
Tire tem perature and pressure in­
crease with the vehicle speed. Tire
pressure should therefore only be
corrected on cold tires. C orrect tire
pressure in hot tires only if pressure
has dropped below the data listed
in the table and the respective
operating conditions are taken into
consideration.
