Tighten the wheel
nuts
firmly
in a crisscross
sequence
as
shown.
Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly tightened
wheel nuts can cause the wheel to become loose
and even come
off.
This could lead to an accident.
Be sure to use the correct wheel nuts. If you have
to replace them, be sure to get new
GM
original
equipment wheel nuts.
Stop somewhere as soon
as
you can and have the
nuts tightened with
a
torque wrench to
100
lb-ft
(140
Nom).
NOTICE:
Improperly tightened wheel nuts can lead to
brake pulsation and rotor damage.
To
avoid
expensive brake repairs, evenly tighten the wheel
nuts in the proper sequence and to the proper
torque specification.
Don’t try to put the wheel cover
on
your compact spare
tire. It won’t fit. Store the wheel cover in the trunk until
you have the flat tire repaired or replaced.
NOTICE:
Wheel covers won’t
fit
on your compact spare. If
you try to put
a
wheel cover on your compact
spare, you could damage the cover or the spare.
