'00 Tacoma(U) -Reinstalling wheel ornament -After changing wheels 11. Check the air pressure of the replaced tire. Adjust the air pressure to the specification designated in Section 8. If the pressure is lower, drive slowly to the nearest service station and fill to the correct pressure. Do not forget to reinstall the tire inflation valve cap as dirt and moisture could get into the valve core and possibly cause air leakage. If the cap is missing, have a new one put on as soon as possible. 12. Restow all the tools, jack and flat tire securely. 10. Reinstall the wheel ornament. 1. Put the wheel ornament in position. On some models, align the cutout of the wheel ornament with the valve stem as shown. 2. Then firmly tap the outer edge of the wheel cap with the side or heel of your hand to snap it into place. On steel wheel ornaments for free- wheeling hubs, place the wheel ornament replacer over the opening and tap on the replacer to snap the ornament into place. Be careful not to slip off the replacer. As soon after changing wheels as possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the torque specified in Section 8 with a torque wrench. Have a technician repair the flat tire. CAUTION Before driving, make sure all the tools, jack and flat tire are securely in place in their storage location to reduce the possibility of personal injury during a collision or sudden braking. CAUTION Take due care in handling the ornament to avoid unexpected personal injury. 197
