G
For safety reasons, you must observe the
following after changing a wheel:
\4Have the tightening torque checked:
\4for wheel bolts 177 lb-ft (240 Nm)
(steel wheel)/133 lb-ft (180 Nm)
(light-alloy wheel) or
\4for wheel nuts
133 lb-ft (180 Nm).
The wheels could otherwise come loose.
\4Check the tire pressure and correct it if
necessary
\4Have the wheel bolts or wheel nuts re-
tightened after 30 miles (50 km) to a
torque of:
\4177 lb-ft (240 Nm) (steel wheel)/
133 lb-ft (180 Nm) (light-alloy
wheel) for wheel bolts or
\4133 lb-ft (180 Nm) for wheel nuts.
\4Have the direction of tire rotation cor-
rected, if reversed, as soon as possible
at an authorized Sprinter Dealer. The ve-
hicle handling characteristics could oth-
erwise be affected.Warning
G
Loose wheel nuts or bolts could cause the
vehicle to lose a wheel while it is in motion.
This would jeopardize the operating and
road safety of the vehicle. You could lose
control of the vehicle as a result, cause an
accident and injure yourself or others.
If new or repainted wheels are mounted, the
wheel bolts or wheel nuts must be retight-
ened again after approximately 600 to 3000
miles (about 1000 to 5000 km).
