parts of the wheel nuts make light contact
with the seats of the wheel holes and the
wheel is not loose.
CAUTION
l
Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts
or the nuts, or they will tighten too much.
NOTE
l
Flange nuts can be temporarily used on the
steel spare wheel, but return to the original
wheel and tyre as soon as possible.

steel wheels, e.g. when fitting winter tyres,
use tapered nuts.

much.
