WHEEL AND TIRE
TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS
Proper lug nut/bolt torque is very im-
portant to ensure that the wheel is
properly mounted to the vehicle. Any
time a wheel has been removed and
reinstalled on the vehicle the lug nuts/
bolts should be torqued using a prop-
erly calibrated torque wrench.

**Use only LANCIA recommended
lug nuts/bolts and clean or remove
any dirt or oil before tightening.
Inspect the wheel mounting surface
prior to mounting the tire and remove
any corrosion or loose particles. Tighten the lug nuts/bolts in a star
pattern until each nut/bolt has been
tightened twice.
After 40 km check the lug nut/bolt
torque to be sure that all the lug nuts/
bolts are properly seated against the
wheel.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the ve-
hicle off the jack, do not tighten the
lug nuts fully until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this
warning may result in personal in-
jury.
JACKING AND TIRE
CHANGING
WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on
the side of the vehicle close to
moving traffic. Pull far enough
off the road to avoid the danger of
being hit when operating the jack
or changing the wheel.
