2. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end
of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug

To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do
not tighten the wheel nuts fully until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may
result in serious injury.
3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack

wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until each

torque wrench to ensure that all lug nuts are properly
seated against the wheel.
