4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire touches the ground. Then, with the wheel nut wrench, tighten the wheel nuts securely in the sequence as illustrated. Lower the vehicle completely. . As soon as possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque with a torque wrench. Wheel nut tightening torque: 80 ft-lb (108 N·m) The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to specification at all times. It is recommended that wheel nuts be tightened to specifications at each lubrication interval. . Adjust tire pressure to the COLD pressure. WARNING . Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly tightened wheel nuts can cause the wheel to become loose or come off. This could cause an accident. Do not use oil or grease on the wheel studs or nuts. This could cause the nuts to become loose. Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven for 600 miles (1,000 km) (also in cases of a flat tire, etc.). SCE0661 . COLD pressure: After the vehicle has been parked for three hours or more or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km). COLD tire pressures are shown on the Tire and Loading Information label affixed to the driver side center pillar. After adjusting tire pressure to the COLD tire pressure, the display of the tire pressure information may show higher pressure than the COLD tire pressure after the vehicle has been driven more than 1 mile (1.6 km). This is because the tire pressurizes as the tire temperature rises. This does not indicate a system malfunction. Installing the spare tire The T-type spare tire is designed for emergency use. (See specific instructions under the heading "WHEELS AND TIRES" in the "8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself" section.) 1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surface between the wheel and hub. 2. Carefully put the spare tire on and tighten the wheel nuts finger tight. 3. With the wheel nut wrench, tighten wheel nuts alternately and evenly in the 1 2 3 sequence as illustrated 4 5 *, *) until they are tight. . 6-6 In case of emergency

Installing the spare tire
The
T-type
spare
tire
is
designed
for
emergency use. (See specific instructions
under the heading
WHEELS AND TIRES
in
the
8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself
section.)
1.
Clean any mud or dirt from the surface
between the wheel and hub.
2.
Carefully put the spare tire on and
tighten the wheel nuts finger tight.
3.
With
the
wheel
nut
wrench,
tighten
wheel nuts alternately and evenly in the
sequence as illustrated (
*
1
,
*
2
,
*
3
,
*
4
,
*
5
) until they are tight.
4.
Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire
touches
the
ground. Then,
with
the
wheel nut wrench, tighten the wheel
nuts
securely
in
the
sequence
as
illustrated. Lower the vehicle comple-
tely.
WARNING
.
Incorrect
wheel
nuts
or
improperly
tightened
wheel
nuts
can
cause
the
wheel to become loose or come off. This
could cause an accident.
.
Do not use oil or grease on the wheel
studs or nuts. This could cause the nuts
to become loose.
.
Retighten
the
wheel
nuts
when
the
vehicle has been driven for 600 miles
(1,000 km) (also in cases of a flat tire,
etc.).
.
As soon as possible, tighten the
wheel nuts to the specified torque
with a torque wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
80 ft-lb (108 N·m)
The wheel nuts must be kept tightened
to
specification
at
all
times.
It
is
recommended
that
wheel
nuts
be
tightened
to
specifications
at
each
lubrication interval.
.
Adjust tire pressure to the COLD
pressure.
COLD pressure:
After the vehicle has been parked for
three hours or more or driven less than
1 mile (1.6 km).
COLD tire pressures are shown on the
Tire
and
Loading
Information
label
affixed to the driver side center pillar.
After adjusting tire pressure to the COLD
tire
pressure,
the
display
of
the
tire
pressure
information
may
show
higher
pressure than the COLD tire pressure after
the vehicle has been driven more than 1
mile (1.6 km). This is because the tire
pressurizes as the tire temperature rises.
This does not indicate a system malfunc-
tion.
