10. Remove the wheel nuts and the flat
tire.
11. Before putting the spare tire on, clean
the mounting surface of the wheel and hub
with a cloth.
12. Put on the spare tire. Replace the
wheel nuts. Tighten them by hand.
WARNING
Do not use oil or grease on the
wheel studs or nuts when the spare
tire is installed. This could cause the
nuts to become loose and lead to an
accident.
13. Turn the jack handle counterclockwise
to lower the vehicle.
14. Use the wheel nut wrench to securely
tighten the wheel nuts to the specified
torque, following the tightening order in the
illustration.
The torque for tightening the nuts is 89
lbf·ft (120 N·m, 12 kgf·m). This torque is
equivalent to applying approximately 110
lbs (50 kg) at the top of the wheel nut
wrench. Never use your foot on the wheel
nut wrench or a pipe extension on the
wrench because you may exceed the
specified torque. Have the wheel nut
torque checked at the nearest automotive
service facility.
15. Store the flat tire in the spare tire
compartment.
Put the spacer and tighten the attaching
bolt firmly.
Also store the jack and jack handle in their
storage locations.
