Owner's Manual

Notice: Improperly tightened wheel nuts can lead
to brake pulsation and rotor damage.
To avoid
expensive brake repairs, evenly tighten the wheel
nuts
in the proper sequence and to the proper torque
specification. See “Capacities and Specifications”
in
the index for the wheel nut torque specification.
When you reinstall the regular wheel and tire, you must
also reinstall the center cap. Place the cap on the
wheel and tap it into place until
it seats flush with the
wheel. The cap only goes
on one way. Be sure to
line up the tab on the center cap with the indentation
on the wheel.
Storing a Flat or Spare Tire, Jack
and
Tools
Storing a jack, a tire, or other equipment in the
passenger compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury.
In a sudden stop or collision,
loose equipment could strike someone.
Store all these in the proper place.
Notice: An aluminum wheel with a flat tire should
always be stored under the vehicle with the hoist.
However, storing
it that way for an extended period
of time could damage the wheel.
To avoid this,
always stow the wheel properly with the valve stem
pointing
up and have the wheel repaired as soon
as possible.
