Road Tire Installation
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. To ease the installation process for steel wheels with wheel covers, install two wheel
bolts on the wheel which are on each side of the valve stem. Install the wheel bolts with
the threaded end of the bolt toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the wheel bolts.
3. Align the valve notch in the wheel cover
with the valve stem on the wheel. Install
the cover by hand, snapping the cover
over the two wheel bolts. Do not use a
hammer or excessive force to install the
cover.
4. Install the remaining wheel bolts with
the threaded end of the wheel bolt to-
ward the wheel. Lightly tighten the
wheel bolts.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turn-
ing the jack handle counterclockwise.
6. Finish tightening the wheel bolts. Push
down on the wrench while at the end of
the handle for increased leverage.
Ti g h t e n t h e w h e e l b o l t s i n a s t a r p a t t e r n
until each wheel bolt has been tightened
twice. The correct tightness of each
wheel bolt is 100 ft/lbs (135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them
checked with a torque wrench by your authorized dealer or service station.
7. After 25 miles (40 km) check the wheel bolt torque with a torque wrench to ensure that
all wheel bolts are properly seated against the wheel.

3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
4. Finish tightening the wheel bolts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the
handle for increased leverage. Tighten the wheel bolts in a star pattern until each bolt
has been tightened twice. The correct tightness of each wheel bolt is 100 ft/lbs
(135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque
wrench by your authorized dealer or service station.
5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the wheel bolt torque with a torque wrench to ensure that
all wheel bolts are properly seated against the wheel.

1. Press the Power Button (4) to turn on Tire Service Kit and inflate the tire to the pressure
indicated on the tire and loading information label on the driver-side door opening.
2. Disconnect the Tire Service Kit from the valve stem, reinstall the cap on the valve stem
and unplug from 12 Volt outlet.
3. Place the Tire Service Kit in its proper storage area in the vehicle.

Jump-Starting Procedure
1. Connect the positive(+)end of the jumper cable to the positive(+)post of the vehicle
with the discharged battery.
2. Connect the opposite end of the positive(+)jumper cable to the positive(+)post of the
booster battery.
3. Connect the negative(-)end of the jumper cable to the negative(-)post of the booster
battery.
4. Connect the opposite end of the negative(-)jumper cable to a good engine ground
(exposed metal part of the discharged vehicle’s engine) away from the battery and the
fuel injection system.
5. Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged battery.
