WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

To reinstall the wheel cover, hold it on
the studs, put the wheel nuts on the
studs and tighten them finger tight. The
nuts should be installed with their small
diameter ends directed inward. Jiggle
the tire to be sure it is completely
seated, then tighten the nuts as much
as possible with your fingers again.

other nut until they are all tight. Then
double-check each nut for tightness.
