1. Place the foldable chock* behind the front

wheel on the other side of the vehicle or in

front of the wheel if the vehicle is on an

incline. If the wheel is changed on a surface

with a more severe slope, take additional

precautions to secure the vehicle from roll-

ing.

2. Uncover the lug bolts if necessary.

3. Loosen the lug bolts by a half turn.

Jacking up the vehicle

The vehicle jack is designed for changing

wheels only. Do not attempt to raise

another vehicle model with it or to raise any load

of any kind. To do so could cause accidents and

personal injury.<

1. Place the jack at the jacking point closest to

the wheel.

The jack base must be perpendicular to the

surface beneath the jacking point.

2. Slide reversible ratchet onto the fixture on

the jack, arrow 1.

3. As you ratchet up the jack, place the jack

head onto the lifting point on the body,

arrow 2.

4. Jack the vehicle up until the wheel you are

changing is raised off the ground.

Mounting the wheel

1. Unscrew the lug bolts and remove the

wheel.

2. Remove accumulations of mud or dirt from

the mounting surfaces of the wheel and

hub. Clean the lug bolts.

3. Lift the new wheel into place.

4. Screw at least two lug bolts finger-tight into

opposite bolt holes.

5. Screw in the remaining bolts.

6. Tighten all the lug bolts firmly in a diagonal

pattern.

7. Lower the vehicle.

8. Remove the jack.

Tightening the lug bolts

Tighten the lug bolts in a diagonal pattern.

Immediately have the wheels checked

with a calibrated torque wrench to ensure

that the lug bolts are firmly seated. Otherwise,

incorrectly tightened lug bolts can present a

safety hazard.<

Tightening torque: 103.3 lb ft or 140 Nm.

Replace the defective tire as soon as possible

and have the new wheel/tire assembly bal-

anced.
