●
Use only wheel bolts which correspond
to the rim in question.
●
Never use different wheel bolts.
●
Wheel bolts and threads should be clean,
free of oil and grease, and it should be pos-
sible to screw them easily.
●
To loosen and tighten wheel bolts, only
use the wheel wrench that came with the
car from the factory.
●
The wheel bolts should only be loosened
slightly (about one turn) before raising the
vehicle with the jack. Risk of accident!
●
Never apply grease or oil to wheel bolts
or to the wheel hub threads. Even if the
bolts have been tightened to the prescri-
bed torque, they could come loose while
driving.
●
Never loosen the screwed joints of wheel
rims with bolted ring trims.
●
If wheel bolts are tightened below the
prescribed torque, the bolts and rims could
come loose while driving. If tightening tor-
que is too high, the wheel bolts or threads
can be damaged.
