Attaching the jack
1. Position the jack correctly on the bar in the
attachment (see illustration) and crank
while simultaneously guiding the base of
the jack to the ground. The base of the jack
must be flat on a level, firm, non-slippery
surface. Before raising the vehicle, check
that the jack is still correctly positioned in
the attachment.
2. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be
changed is lifted off the ground.
3. Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and
carefully remove the wheel so as not to
damage the threads on the studs.

NOTE
To avoid excessive wear and the necessity
of rebalancing, mark and reinstall wheels in
the same location and position as before
removal. To lessen the chance of imbal-
ance, each wheel hub is equipped with a
guide stud to ensure that a removed wheel
can be reinstalled in its original position (as
when changing over to winter tires/wheels).
Installing the wheel
1. Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel
and hub.
2. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub.
3. Install the wheel bolts and tighten hand-
tight. Using the lug wrench, tighten cross-
wise until all bolts are snug.
4. Lower the vehicle to the ground and alter-
nately tighten the bolts crosswise to 102 ft.
lbs. (140 Nm).
5. Install the wheel cap (where applicable).
