Vehicles with aluminium wheels
Tighten the wheel nuts (flange nuts) un-
til their flange section comes in contact with the wheel and is no longer loose.CAUTIONl Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or
the nuts, or they will tighten too much.NOTEl Flange nuts can be temporarily used on the
steel wheel as shown in the illustration, but return to the original wheel and tyre as soonas possible.
l If all four aluminium wheels are changed to
steel wheels, use tapered nuts.
10. Put the notch (J) provided on the jack
handle end on the valve (K) of the jack.
Using the jack handle, turn the release
valve anticlockwise slowly to lower thevehicle until the tyre touches the ground.WARNINGl Be sure to open the release valve slowly. If
it is opened quickly, the vehicle will drop
abruptly and the jack may come out of
position, causing a serious accident.
11. Tighten the nuts crisscross in 2 or 3
steps until each nut has been tightened
securely.

Tightening torque
105 to 125 Nm
(Achieved by applying a force of 390
to 460 N at the end of the wheel nut wrench supplied with the vehicle.)CAUTIONl Never use your foot or a pipe extension for
extra force in the wheel nut wrench. If you
do so, you will tighten the nut too much.
12. Lower the jack all the way and remove
it.
CAUTIONl If the release valve is loosened too much (2
or more turns) in the anticlockwise direction, the jack’s oil will leak and the jack cannotbe used.CAUTIONl Close the release valve slowly when lower-
ing the vehicle, or the valve may be dam-
aged.NOTEl Occasionally when the vehicle is jacked up,
the grooved portion of the designated pointwill not come off. When this happens, rock
the vehicle to lower the ram.
l If the jack is difficult to remove by hand, in-
sert the jack handle (L) into the bracket (M).Then using the handle, remove the jack.
13. Press the piston down all the way, and
turn the release valve clockwise as far as possible.
14. Check your tyre inflation pressure at the
next gasstation. The correct pressures
are shown on the driver’s door label. See the illustration.
15. On vehicles with tyre pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS), after filling your tyres to the correct pressure, reset the tyre pressure monitoring system(TPMS).
Refer to “Tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem (TPMS): Reset of low tyre pressure
warning threshold” on page 6-56.
CAUTIONl After changing the tyre and driving the vehi-
cle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retighten the
wheel nuts to make sure that they have not come loose.
l If the steering wheel vibrates when driving
after changing the tyre, we recommend you to have the tyres checked for balance.
