attachment . Now raise the vehicle until the wheel is free of the ground. Unscrew the wheel nuts
completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the tread of the studs.
WARNING!
The jack's hook engage the bar in the jack attachment (A). The car's weight must not rest on the
jack's attachment (B).
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface.
Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack.
Use the jack intended for the car when replacing a wheel. For any other job, use stands to support
the end of the car being worked on.
Apply the parking brake, select position P (automatic transmission).
Block the wheels standing on the ground. Use rigid wooden blocks or large stones.
The jack should be kept well-greased.
Installing the wheel
Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub. Make sure that
you align the wheel with the guide stud on the wheel hub prior to installation. Install the wheel nuts
crosswise and tighten lightly. The bevelled side of the nuts should face the wheel. Lower the vehicle to
the ground and alternately tighten the nuts to 63 lbs. (85 Nm). Install the wheel cap.
Some models have a hub cap that extends to the wheel rim. The valve symbol on the inside of the hub
cap should be installed toward the valve. After driving for a short time, a gap of approximately 0.2" (5
mm) will develop between the wheel cover and the rim. This is normal.
