When rotating your tires, always use the correct
rotation pattern shown here.
Do not include the compact spare tire in the tire
rotation.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front
and rear inflation pressures as shown on the
tire and loading information label. See Loading
Your Vehicle on page 248 for an example of
the tire and loading information label and where it
is located on your vehicle. Make certain that all
wheel nuts are properly tightened. See “Wheel Nut
Torque” under Capacities and Specifications on
page 368.
{CAUTION:
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to
which it is fastened, can make wheel nuts
become loose after a time. The wheel
could come off and cause an accident.
When you change a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where the wheel
attaches to the vehicle. In an emergency,
you can use a cloth or a paper towel to do
this; but be sure to use a scraper or wire
brush later, if needed, to get all the rust or
dirt off. See Changing a Flat Tire on
page 336.
