the dial (thumbwheel) by hand, it may be necessary to use the jack drive tube in order
to lower the jack. Stow the replaced tire, jack, and tools as previously described.
• Adjust the tire pressure when possible.
NOTE:
Do not oil wheel studs. For chrome wheels, do not substitute with chrome plated
wheel nuts.
