4.2 TORQUE LIST FOR BOLTS AND NUTS
Unless otherwise specified, tighten the metric bolts and nuts to the torque shown

The tightening torque is determined by the width across flats (b) of the nut and
bolt.
When tightening panels or other parts with tightening fixtures made of

excessively will damage the plastic parts.
Be extremely careful when tightening.
