RWARNING
Your vehicle has been built with
metric (12 mm) threads on the wheel
studs and lug nuts. Make certain,
during wheel removal, the same nuts
removed are reinstalled, or if
replaced, nuts with metric threads
and the same chamfer configuration
are used. Installation of an improper
thread nut on a metric stud will not
properly secure the wheel to the hub
and will damage the stud so that it
must be replaced. Damaged studs
may result in wheel separation and
personal injury.

4. Reinstall the lug nuts, tightening until the
wheel is snug against the hub. The beveled
edges on the lug nuts face inward. Do not
fully tighten the lug nuts until you lower the
vehicle. If you do, you could force the
vehicle off the jack.

dealer or a qualified service technician check
the lug nuts for proper torque specifications.
