IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
To lower the vehicle, turn the jack handle extension
counterclockwise with the handle, making sure the handle
remains firmly fitted onto the jack handle extension.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten the nuts. Do not use
other tools or any additional leverage other than your hands,
such as a hammer, pipe or your foot. Make sure the wrench
is securely engaged over the nut.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the order shown. Repeat
the process until all the nuts are tight.
CAUTION
D When lowering the vehicle, make sure all portions of
your body and all other persons around will not be
injured as the vehicle is lowered to the ground.
D As soon as possible after changing wheels, have the
wheel nuts tightened by torque wrench at 131 N·m
(13.4 kgf·m, 97 ft·lbf.).

10.Reinstall the wheel ornament.
Put the wheel ornament into position and then tap it firmly with
the side or heel of your hand to snap it into place.
CAUTION
Take due care in handling the ornament to avoid
unexpected personal injury.
11. After changing the wheel, check the air pressure of the
replaced tire. Stow all the tools, jack and flat tire securely.
If the pressure of the replaced tire is low, drive slowly to the
nearest service station and fill to the correct pressure.
Do not forget to reinstall the tire valve cap as dirt and moisture
could get into the valve core and possible cause air leakage.
If the cap is missing, put a new one on as soon as possible.
This is the same procedure for changing or rotating your tires.
