286
The wheel bolts must be clean and loosen/tight ­
en easily . Check the contact surfaces for the
wheel and hub. Contam inants on these surfaces
must be removed before installing the wheel.
A WARNING
Never use the hex socket in the screwdriver
handle to tighten the wheel bolts. Using the
hex socket will not achieve the required tight­
ening torque, which increases the risk of an
accident.
(D Note
When removing or installing the wheel, the
rim could h it the brake rotor/ceramic brake
r otor* and damage the rotor. Work carefully
and have a second person help you .
(D Tips
- When mounting tires with unidirectional
tread design make sure the tread pattern is
pointed the right way
Q page 286.
-The wheel bolts should be clean and easy to
turn. Check for dirt and corrosion on the
mating surfaces of both the wheel and the
hub. Remove all dirt from these surfaces be­
fore remounting the whee l.
Unidirectional tires
A unidirectional tire profi le is identified by arrows
that point in the runn ing direction on the tire
s idewall. You must always adhere to the speci­
fied running direction. This is necessary ensure
the tire's optimum performance in regard to ad­
hesion , running noise, friction and hydroplaning.
To benefit fully from the advantages of the uni­
directional tire design, you should replace faulty
tires as soon as possible and restore the correct
running direction on all of the tires.
Finishing
., Re install the caps on the wheel bolts if neces­
sary .
., Store the veh icle tool kit in its designated
place . .,.
