Tighten each nut a little at a time in
the order shown. Repeat the process
until all the nuts are tight.
CAUTION
When lowering the vehicle,
make sure all portions of your
body and all other persons
around will not be injured as
the vehicle is lowered to the
ground.
Have the wheel nuts tightened
with torque wrench to 110 N´m
(11.5 kgf´m, 83 ft´lbf), as soon
as possible after changing
wheels. Otherwise, the nuts
may loosen and the wheels
may fall off, which could cause
a serious accident.

Ty p e B10.Reinstall the wheel ornament.
Put the wheel ornament into position
and then tap it firmly with the side or
heel of your hand to snap it into place.
CAUTION
Take due care in handling the or-
nament to avoid unexpected per-
sonal injury.

11. Check the air pressure of the re-
placed tire.
Adjust the air pressure to the specifi-
cation designated on page 458 in
Section 8. If the pressure is lower,
drive slowly to the nearest service
station and fill to the correct pressure.
Do not forget to reinstall the tire infla-
tion valve cap as dirt and moisture
could get into the valve core and
possibly cause air leakage. If the cap
is missing, have a new one put on as
soon as possible.
12.Restow all the tools, jack and
flat tire securely.
With a spare tire of the same wheel
type as the installed tiresÐ
As soon after changing wheels as
possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the
torque specified on page 458 in Sec-
tion 8 with a torque wrench. Have a
technician repair the flat tire.With a spare tire of different wheel
type from the installed tiresÐ
As soon after changing wheels as
possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the
torque specified on page 458 in Sec-
tion 8 with a torque wrench. Have a
technician repair the flat tire and re-
place the spare tire with it.
Initial adjustment of the tire pres-
sure warning system is necessary
after you have replaced your tires
or wheels. See ªTire pressure
warning systemº on page 198 in
Section 1±7.
CAUTION
Before driving, make sure all the
tools, jack and flat tire are se-
curely in place in their storage
location to reduce the possibility
of personal injury during a colli-
sion or sudden braking.
If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow,
mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt
to rock the vehicle free by moving it
forward and backward.
Two±wheel drive modelsÐTurn off the
traction control system to become un-
stuck to allow the tires to spin enough
to remove the vehicle from the obstruc-
tion. (For details, see ªTraction control
systemº on page 182 in Section 1±7.)
CAUTION
Do not attempt to rock the vehicle
free by moving it forward and back-
ward if people or objects are any-
where near the vehicle. During the
rocking operation the vehicle may
suddenly move forward or backward
as it becomes unstuck, causing injury
or damage to nearby people or ob-
jects.
