WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do
not tighten the wheel bolts fully until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may
result in serious injury.
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 wheel bolt has been tightened twice. Refer to
“Wheel And Tire Torque Specifications” in “Technical
Specifications” for the proper lug bolt torque. If in doubt
about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by an authorized dealer or service sta-
tion.
5. Lower the jack until it is free. Remove the wheel blocks.
Reassemble the lug wrench to the jack assembly and
stow it in the spare tire area. Secure the assembly using
the means provided. Release the parking brake before
driving the vehicle.
6. 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.
