INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALUMINUM TYPE
WHEELSN2zGFM
1. Aluminum is vulnerable to alkalies. If a vehicle
washing detergent has been used, or salt from
sea water or road chemicals has adhered, washthe vehicle as soon as possible. After washing
the vehicle, apply body or wheel wax to the
aluminum type wheels to prevent corrosion.
2. When cleaning the vehicle with steam, do not
direct steam onto the aluminum type wheels.
When tightening nuts for aluminum type
wheels, particularly observe the following:
(1) Cl;Zl;lsthe hub surface of aluminum type
(2) After finger-tightening wheel nuts, tighten
them to specifications.
(3) Do not use an impact wrench or push the
wrench by foot to tighten the wheel nuts.
(4) Do not apply oil to the threaded portions.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR TIRE CHAINS AND
SNOW TIRES
1.Use tire chains only on front wheels. Do not usetire chains on rear wheels.
2. When using snow tires, use them on all four
wheels for maneuverability and safety.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPACT
TIRE
1. The compact spare tire is designed
space in the luggage compartment,
lighter weight makes it easier to use if
occurs.g
2.-- IThe following instructions for the compact spare .,z,tire should be observed.
i/(1) Check the inflation pressure after installing ii,the spare, and adjust to the specified
pres-..$i
sure.t’
(2) Avoid driving through automatic car washes
and over obstacles that could possiblyage the vehicle’s undercarriage. Because
the tire is smaller than the
original tire,
ground clearance is slightly reduced,
(3) The compact spare tire should not be
used: i5iS:on any other wheels, nor should standard
i;:?tires, snow tires, wheel covers or trim rings
Ibe used with the compact spare wheel. If.
1.;such use is attempted, damage to these
items or other vehicle components may
