Tighten each nut a little at a time in
the order shown. Repeat the process
until all the nuts are tight.
CAUTION

When lowering the vehicle,
make sure all portions of your
body and all other persons
around will not be injured as
the vehicle is lowered to the
ground.
 Have the wheel nuts tightened
with a torque wrench to 131
N·m (13.4 kgf·m, 96.6 ft·lbf), as
soon as possible after chang-
ing wheels. Otherwise, the
nuts may loosen and the
wheels may fall off, which
could cause a serious acci-
dent.
—Reinstalling wheel ornament
10. Reinstall the wheel ornament.
Put the wheel ornament into position.
And press hand firmly on one side of
wheel ornament and then firmly tap
the other side around the edge of
wheel ornament with the heel of your
hand to snap into place.
CAUTION
Take due care in handling the or-
nament to avoid unexpected per-
sonal injury.
—After changing wheels
11. Check the air pressure of the re- placed tire.
Adjust the air pressu re to the specifi-
cation designated on page 328. If the
pressure is lower, dr ive slowly to the
nearest service station and fill to the
correct pressure.
Do not forget to reinstall the tire infla-
tion valve cap as dirt and moisture
could get into th e valve core and
possibly cause air leakage. If the cap
is missing, have a new one put on as
soon as possible.
12. Restow all the tools, jack and flat tire securely.
As soon after changing wheels as
possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the
torque specified on page 328 with a
torque wrench. Have a technician re-
pair the flat tire.
This is the same procedure for chang-
ing or rotating your tires.
