INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALUMINUM TYPE
WHEELSUzzGfM
1. Aluminum is vulnerable to alkalies. If a vehicle
washing detergent has been used, or salt from
sea water or road chemicals has adhered, washthe vehicle as soon as possible. After washing
the vehicle, apply body or wheel wax to the
aluminum type wheels to prevent corrosion.
2. When cleaning the vehicle with steam, do not
direct steam onto the aluminum type wheels.
When tightening nuts for aluminum type
wheels, particularly observe the following:
(1) Clean the hub surface of aluminum type
wheels.(2) After finger-tightening wheel nuts, tighten
them to specifications.
(3) Do not use an impact wrench or push the
wrench by foot to tighten the wheel nuts.
(4) Do not apply oil to the threaded portions.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR TIRE CHAINS AND
SNOW TIRESNZZGGAA
1.Use tire chains only on front wheels. Do not usetire chains on rear wheels.
2. When using snow tires, use them on all four
wheels for maneuverability and safety.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPACT SPARE
TIRE;c.1. The compact spare tire is designed to. save
space in the luggage compartment, and its
L’lighter weight makes it easier to use if a fiat tire
occurs.
2.The following instructions for the compact sparetire should be observed.
(1) Check the inflation pressure after installing
the spare, and adjust to the specified pres-
sure.(2) Avoid driving through automatic car washes
and over obstacles that could possibly dam-
age the vehicle’s undercarriage. Because
the tire is smaller than the original tire, car
ground clearance is slightly reduced.
(3) The compact spare tire should not be used
on any other wheels, nor should standard
tires, snow tires, wheel covers or trim rings
be used with the compact spare wheel. If
such use is attempted, damage to these
items or other vehicle components may
occur.
