10-70 Vehicle Care
{Caution
Improperly tightened wheel nuts
can lead to brake pulsation and
rotor damage. To avoid expensive
brake repairs, evenly tighten the
wheel nuts in the proper
sequence and to the proper
torque specification. See
Capacities and Specifications for
the wheel nut torque specification.
When reinstalling the regular wheel
and tire, also reinstall the center
cap, if equipped. Line up the tab on
the center cap with the slot in the
wheel. The cap only goes in one
way. Place the cap on the wheel
and press until it snaps into place.
Storing a Flat or Spare Tire
and Tools
{Warning
Storing a jack, a tire, or other
equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.
{Caution
Storing an aluminum wheel with a
flat tire under your vehicle for an
extended period of time or with
the valve stem pointing up can
damage the wheel. Always stow
the wheel with the valve stem
pointing down and have the
wheel/tire repaired as soon as
possible. Store the tire under the rear of the
vehicle in the spare tire carrier.
