Then tighten the nuts alternately to a torque of 27 ± 2 Nm (20 ± 1 ft. lbs.) to install the cap properly.





Make a paint mark on the head of each nut.

CAUTION:

^ If the nut is overtightened (exceeding 94 degrees), loosen the nut completely and then retighten it by repeating the tightening procedure from step 3.

Make a paint mark on the bolt end at a position 90 to 94 degrees from the paint mark made on the nut in the direction of tightening the nut.
Turn the nut another 90 to 94 degrees and make sure that the paint marks on the nut and bolt are aligned.
