WARNING:
.Never use wheel nuts which are not provided
with your vehicle. Incorrect wheel nuts or
improperly tightened wheel nuts may cause
the wheel to become loose or come off. This
could cause an accident.
. Never use oil or grease on the wheel studs
or nuts. This may cause the wheel nuts to
become loose.
. The T-type spare tire is designed for emer-
gency use only.
1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surface \fetween the wheel and hu\f.
2. Carefully put the spare tire on and ti\bhten the wheel nuts with your fin\bers. Check that all the
wheel nuts contact the wheel surface horizontally.
3. Ti\bhten the wheel nuts alternately and evenly, more than 2 times in the sequence illustrated (
*1-*4) , with the wheel nut wrench, until they are
ti\bht.
4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire touches the \bround.
5. Ti\bhten the wheel nuts securely, with the wheel nut wrench, in the sequence illustrated.
6. Lower the vehicle completely.
Tighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque
with a torque wrench as soon as possible. Wheel nut tightening torque:108 N·m (11 kg-m, 80 ft-lb)
The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to
specification at all times. It is recommended
that the wheel nuts be tightened to specification
at each lubrication interval.
WARNING:
Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has
been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles) . (also in
cases of a flat tire, etc.)

repair kit provided with your vehicle on other
vehicles.

for a purpose other than to inflate and check
the tire pressure for the vehicle.
. Use the emergency tire puncture kit only on
DC12V.
. Keep water and dust off the emergency tire
puncture kit.

tion date (shown on the label attached
to the bottle)
— when the cut or the puncture is approxi- mately 6 mm (0.25 in) or longer
— when the side of the tire is damaged
— when the vehicle has been driven with a considerable loss of air from the tire
