Mitsubishi ASX 2016

WARNING
l
Do not turn the raised wheel. The tyres
still on the ground could turn and make
your vehicle fall off the jack.
5. Remove the wheel nuts with the wheel
nut wrench, then take the wheel off.
CAUTION
l
Handle the wheel carefully when changing
the tyre, to avoid scratching the wheel sur-
face.
6. Clean out any mud, etc. on the hub sur-
face (F), hub bolts (G) or in the installa-
tion holes (H) in the wheel, and then
mount the spare tyre.
WARNING
l
Be sure to position the tyres the correct
way when putting them on the vehicle.
The valves should be on the outer side of
the vehicle. If the valve (I) cannot be seen,
the tyre has been mounted the wrong way
around.
If tyres are mounted the wrong way
around it could have a negative effect on
the vehicle and cause an accident.
7. Turn the wheel nuts clockwise by hand
to initially tighten them.
[Vehicle with the tapered nuts]
Initially tighten the wheel nuts until the
tapered part (A) of the nuts lightly
touches the wheel hole seats (B) enough
to keep the tyre from wobbling.
[Vehicle with the flange nuts]
• Aluminium wheel
Initially tighten the wheel nuts until
the wheel nut flange area (C) touch-
es the wheel enough to keep the tyre
from wobbling.
• Steel wheel
