WARNING
Do not apply oil or grease to wheel
nuts and bolts and do not tighten the
wheel nuts beyond the recommended
tightening torque:
Applying oil or grease to wheel nuts
and bolts is dangerous. The wheel
nuts could loosen while driving and
cause the tyre to come off, resulting in
an accident. In addition, wheel nuts
and bolts could be damaged if
tightened more than necessary.
4. Turn the wheel brace anticlockwise and
lower the vehicle. Use the wheel brace
to tighten the nuts in the order shown.
If you're unsure of how tight the nuts
should be, have them inspected at an
expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Ford Repairer.

In Case of an Emergency
WARNING
Always securely and correctly tighten
the wheel nuts:
Improperly or loosely tightened wheel
nuts are dangerous. The wheel could
wobble or come off. This could result
in loss of vehicle control and cause a
serious accident.
Be sure to reinstall the same nuts you
removed or replace them with metric
nuts of the same configuration:
Because the wheel studs and wheel
nuts on your Ford have metric
threads, using a non-metric nut is
dangerous. On a metric stud, it would
not secure the wheel and would
damage the stud, which could cause
the wheel to slip off and cause an
accident.
5. Store the flat tyre in place of the spare
tyre by reversing the removal order.
6. Store the tools in their proper places.
7. Check the inflation pressure. Refer to
the specification charts on page 10-5.
8. Have the flat tyre repaired or replaced
as soon as possible.
WARNING
Do not drive with any tyres that have
incorrect air pressure:
Driving on tyres with incorrect air
pressure is dangerous. Tyres with
incorrect pressure could affect
handling and result in an accident.
When you check the regular tyres' air
pressure, check the spare tyre, too.
