13. Once the wheel lug nuts havebeen tightened, lower the vehicle
fully to the ground and continue to
tighten the lug nuts until they are
fully secured. Tighten the wheel
lug nuts firmly in a “star” pattern.
If you are unsure of the tightness
of the wheel lug nuts, have them
checked at the nearest service
station. The specified tightening
torque is 9~11 kg•m (65-79 lb•ft,
88-107 N•m). Improperly tight-
ened wheel lug nuts could cause
brake pedal vibration while brak-
ing. 14. Reinstall the wheel cover by fit-
ting the boss of the wheel cover
in the groove of the wheel.
To prevent the jack, jack handle,
wheel lug nut, wrench and spare tire
from rattling while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.

CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threadson the wheel studs and nuts.Make certain during wheelremoval that the s ame nuts
removed are reinstalled - or, if replaced, that nut s with metric
threads and the same chamfer configuration are used.
Ins tallation of a non-metric
thread nut on a metric stud or
vice-ver sa will not secure the
wheel to the hub properly and will damage the stud so that it
mu st be replaced.
Note that most lug nuts do not have metric threads. Be sure to
use extreme care in checking for thread style before in stalling
aftermarket lug nut s or wheels.
If in doubt, cons ult an
Authorized Kia Dealer.
WARNING- Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they
may lose their ability to retain
the wheel. Thi s could lead to the
loss of the wheel and a colli-
sion.
WARNING
Check the inflation pressures as
s oon as possible after ins talling
the spare tire. Adjus t it to the
s pecified pre ssure, if necessary.
