If wheel bolts are rusty and it is difficult to tighten them, the threads should
be replaced and cleaned before checking the torque.
Never grease or lubricate wheel bolts or the wheel hub threads. Although
they have been tightened to the prescribed torque, they could come loose
while driving.
WARNING
If the wheel bolts are not fitted correctly they could be released while
driving leading to loss of vehicle control and serious damage.
Only use wheel bolts which correspond to the wheel rims in question.
Never use different wheel bolts.

WARNING (continued)
The bolts and threads should be clean, free of oil and grease and easy
to thread.
To loosen and tighten the wheel bolts, always use the wheel brace
supplied with the vehicle.
Loosen the wheel bolts only about one turn before raising the vehicle
with the jack.
Never grease or lubricate wheel bolts or the wheel hub threads.
Although they have been tightened to the prescribed torque, they could
come loose while driving.
Never loosen the bolted joints of wheel rims with bolted ring trims.
If the wheel bolts are not tightened to the correct torque, they may
come loose while driving, and the bolts and rims may come out. If the tight-
ening torque is too high, the wheel bolts and threads can be damaged.
