6. Changing Wheels
Use the wrench to loosen the wheel nuts, then
remove them with your fingers. Remove the
wheel cover (if installed) from the wheel and
slide the wheel off the studs and lay it flat so it
cannot roll away. To put the wheel on the hub,
pick up the spare tire, line up the holes with the
studs and slide the wheel onto them. If this is
difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get the top
hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud.
Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until the
wheel can be slid over the other studs.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
SSA3070H
WARNING:
Wheel covers may have sharp edges. Han-
dle them carefully to avoid possible severe
injury. Before putting the wheel into place,
be sure that there is nothing on the hub or
wheel (such as mud, tar, gravel, etc.) that
interferes with the wheel from fitting solidly
against the hub. If there is, remove it. If there
is not good contact on the mounting sur-
face between the wheel and hub, the wheel
nuts could come loose and cause the loss of
a wheel. Loss of a wheel may result in loss
of control of the vehicle. This may cause
serious injury or death.

7. Reinstall Wheel Nuts
SSA3071H
To reinstall the wheel cover, hold it on the wheel
and put the wheel nuts on the studs and tighten
them finger tight. The nuts should be installed
with their small diameter ends directed inward.
Jiggle the tire to be sure it is completely seated,
then tighten the nuts with your fingers again.
