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 by
torque wrench at 103 N·m (10.5
kgf·m, 76 ft·lbf), as soon as pos-
sible after changing wheels. Other-
wise, the nuts may loosen and the
wheels may fall off, which could
cause a serious accident.
10. Reinstall the wheel ornament.
Align the cutout of the wheel ornament
with the valve stem as shown. Then tap
it firmly with the side or heel of your hand
to snap it into place.
CAUTION
Take due care in handling the orna-
ment to avoid unexpected personal
injury.
11. Check the air pressure of the re-
placed tire.
Adjust the air pressure to the specification
designated 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 inflation
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.
As soon after changing wheels as pos-
sible, tighten the wheel nuts to the torque
specified in Section 8 with a torque
wrench. Have a technician repair the flat
tire and replace the spare tire with it.

speeds are permitted by law, inflate the front and rear tires to 280 kPa (2.8 kgf/cm2 or bar, 41 psi) provided that it does not exceed
the maximum cold tire pressure molded on the tire sidewall.
