CAUTION
■Replacing a flat tire
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of death or serious
injury:
●Do not try to remove the ornament by hand. Take due care in handling
the ornament to avoid unexpected personal injury.
●Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts to be excessively tightened,
leading to bolt or disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or grease can
cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, causing a
serious accident. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts or
wheel nuts.
●Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 76 ft•lbf (103
N
•m, 10.5 kgf•m) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
Failure to follow these precautions could cause the nuts to loosen and
the wheel may fall off, which could lead to an accident causing death
or serious injury.
●Do not attach a heavily damaged wheel ornament, as it may fly off the
wheel while the ve hicle is moving.
●Make sure that the rubber rings are not installed to the wheel nuts for
aluminum wheel. Otherwise, the nuts may become loose and the
wheel may fall off, which may cause a serious accident.
