Do not include the spare tire in
the tire rotation. After the tires have been

inflation pressures as shown on
the Tire and Loading Information
label. See
Tire Pressure on
page 10‑58 andVehicle Load
Limits on page 9‑24.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System. See Tire Pressure
Monitor Operation on

Make certain that all wheel nuts
are properly tightened. See

{WARNING
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident.

WARNING (Continued)
When changing a wheel, remove
any rust or dirt from places where
the wheel attaches to the vehicle.
In an emergency, use a cloth or a
paper towel to do this; but be sure
to use a scraper or wire brush
later, if needed, to get all the rust
or dirt off. SeeIf a Tire Goes Flat
on page 10‑73.
Lightly coat the center of the
wheel hub with wheel bearing
grease after a wheel change or
tire rotation to prevent corrosion
or rust build-up. Do not get
grease on the flat wheel
mounting surface or on the
wheel nuts or bolts.
