422 WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES 10. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw to the left. 11. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while tightening for increased leverage. Alternate lug nuts until each nut has been tightened twice. Correct wheel nut tightness is 95 ft lbs (130 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at a service station. 12. Lower the jack to its fully-closed position. 13. Place the deflated (flat) tire and compact spare tire cover assembly in the rear cargo area. Do not stow the deflated tire in the spare tire location. Have the full sized tire repaired or replaced as soon as possible. 14. Stow the cable and wheel spacer before driving the vehicle. Reassemble the winch handle extensions to form a "T' and fit the winch "T" handle over the drive nut. Rotate the nut to the right until the winch mechanism clicks at least three times. 15. Stow the jack, jack handle and winch handle tools. 16. Check the compact spare tire pressure as soon as possible. Correct pressure as required. Wheel Nuts All wheel nuts should be tightened occasionally to eliminate the possibility of wheel studs being sheared or the bolt holes in the wheels becoming elongated. This is especially important during the first few hundred miles WARNING! A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the places provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired or replaced immediately.
