In case of emergency
13.Use the wheel nut wrench to securely tighten the
wheel nuts to the specified torque, following the tight-
ening order in the illustration.
The torque for tightening the nuts is 58 to 72 lbf·ft (80
to 100 N·m, 8 to 10 kgf·m). This torque is equivalent to
applying about 88 to 110 lbs (40 to 50 kg) at the top of
the wheel nut wrench. Never use your foot on the
wheel nut wrench or a pipe extension on the wrench
because you may exceed the specified torque. Have
the wheel nut torque checked at the nearest automo-
tive service facility.
14.Store the flat tire in the spare tire compartment.
Put the spacer and tighten the attaching bolt firmly.
Also store the jack and wheel nut wrench in their stor-
age locations.
After placing the jack in its storage location, turn the
jackscrew clockwise by hand until it becomes too hard
to turn. Then, tighten it by an additional 1/4 – 1/3 of a
turn using a screwdriver or the jack handle. Unless the
jack is properly secured, it may rattle while the vehicle
is moving.
Never place a tire or tire changing tools in the
passenger compartment after changing
wheels. In a sudden stop or collisions, loose
equipment could strike occupants and cause
