crisscross sequence as shown

For vehicles with dual wheels, have
a technician check the wheel nut
tightness of all wheels with a torque
wrench after the first 160 km
(100 mi) and then 1600 km
(1,000 mi) after that. Repeat this
service whenever you have a tire
removed or serviced. See
for more information.
When reinstalling the regular wheel
and tire, also reinstall the center
cap. Place the cap on the wheel
and tap it into place until it seats
flush with the wheel. The cap only
goes on one way. Be sure to line up
the tab on the center cap with the
indentation on the wheel.
Storing a jack, a tire, or other
equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.
Store the tire under the rear of the
vehicle in the spare tire carrier.
