WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
3-7
D060H02Y-AAT7. Reinstall Wheel Nuts
To reinstall the wheel, hold it on the studs, put
the wheel nuts on the studs and tighten them
finger tight. The nuts should be installed with
their small diameter ends directed inward. Jiggle
the tire to be sure it is completely seated, then
tighten the nuts as much as possible with your
fingers again.
D060H01GKWARNING:Wheels and wheel covers may have sharp
edges. Handle them carefully to avoid pos-
sible severe injury. Before putting the wheel
into place, be sure that there is nothing on
the hub or wheel (such as mud, tar, gravel,
etc.) that interferes with the wheel from
fitting solidly against the hub. If there is,
remove it. If there is not good contact on the
mounting surface between the wheel and
hub, the wheel nuts could come loose and
cause the loss of a wheel. Loss of a wheel
may result in loss of control of the vehicle.
This may cause serious injury or death.
STA3071H
Lower the car to the ground by turning the
wheel nut wrench counterclockwise. Then posi-
tion the wrench as shown in the drawing and
tighten the wheel nuts. Be sure the socket is
seated completely over the nut. Do not stand on
the wrench handle or use an extension pipe
over the wrench handle.
Go around the wheel tightening every other nut
until they are all tight. Then double-check each
nut for tightness. After changing wheels, have a
technician tighten the wheel nuts to their proper
torque as soon as possible.
Wheel nut tightening torque:Steel wheel & aluminium alloy wheel:
65-80 lb.ft (900-1,100 kg.cm)

Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and
hangers for cracks, deterioration, or damage.
Start the engine and listen carefully for any
exhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections or
replace parts as necessary.

Check the suspension connections for loose-
ness or damage. Retighten to the specified
torque.
F070N01A-AATo Power Steering Pump, Belt and
Hoses
Check the power steering pump and hoses for
leakage and damage. Replace any damaged or
leaking parts immediately. Inspect the power
steering belt for evidence of cuts, cracks, ex-
cessive wear, oiliness and proper tension. Re-
place or adjust it if necessary.
