5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

Remove all the wheel nuts and
the tire.

When resting the tire on the
ground, place the tire so that the
wheel design faces up to avoid
scratching the wheel surface.

Installing the spare tire

Remove any dirt or foreign mat-
ter from the wheel contact sur-
face.

If foreign matter is on the wheel
contact surface, the wheel nuts
may loosen while the vehicle is
in motion, causing the tire to
come off.

Install the tire and loosely tighten each wheel nut by hand by
approximately the same amount.

When replacing a steel wheel
with a steel wheel, tighten the
wheel nuts until the tapered por-
tion comes into loose contact
with the disc wheel seat.
