Dodge 2013 Charger - Police Supplement - Manual (Page 48)

• Refer to “Starting and Operating/Tires—General In-
formation” in the Owner’s Manual for additional
warnings, cautions, and information about the spare
tire, its use, and operation.
7. Install the lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the lug
nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack,
do not fully tighten the lug nuts until the vehicle has
been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may
result in personal injury.
8. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack
handle counterclockwise.
9. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the
wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until
each nut has been tightened twice. The correct tight-
ness of each lug nut is 110 ft. lbs. (150 N·m). If in doubt
about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at a
service station.
10. Stow the jack, tools and flat tire. Make sure the base
of the jack faces the front of the vehicle before
tightening down the fastener.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or
hard stop could endanger the occupants of the ve-
hicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in
the places provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire
repaired or replaced immediately.
