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 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, and the tire may
come off the vehicle.

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

Replacing a steel wheel with a steel wheel

Tighten the nuts until the tapered
portion comes into loose contact
with the disc wheel sheet.
