Maintenance and care
■When replacing wheels 
The  wheels  of  your  vehicle  are  equipped  with  tire  pressure  warn ing  valves 
and  transmitters  (except  for  compact  spare  tire)  that  allow  the   tire  pressure 
warning system to provide advance warning in the event of a los s in tire infla- 
tion  pressure.  Whenever  wheels  are  replaced,  tire  pressure  warning  valves 
and transmitters must be installed. ( P. 618)
WARNING
■When replacing wheels 
● Do not use wheels that are a different size from those recommended in the 
Owner’s Manual, as this may resu lt in a loss of handling control. 
● Never  use  an  inner  tube  in  a  leaking  wheel  which  is  designed  for  a  tube- 
less  tire.  Doing  so  may  result  in  an  accident,  causing  death  or   serious 
injury. 
■ When installing the wheel nuts 
● Be sure to install the wheel nuts with the tapered ends facing inward.  
( P.  738)  Installing  the  nuts  with  the  tapered  ends  facing  outward  can 
cause  the  wheel  to  break  and  eventually  cause  the  wheel  to  come  off 
while driving, which could lead to an accident resulting in dea th or serious 
injury. 
● Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.  
Oil  and  grease  may  cause  the  wheel  nuts  to  be  excessively  tight ened, 
leading  to  bolt  or  disc  wheel  damage.  In  addition,  the  oil  or  grease  can 
cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, caus ing an acci- 
dent  and  resulting  in  death  or  serious  injury.  Remove  any  oil  o r  grease 
from the wheel bolts or wheel nuts. 
■ Use of defective wheels prohibited 
Do not use cracked or deformed wheels.  
Doing so could cause the tire to leak air during driving, possi bly causing an 
accident.
