The book prints a torque range. If you are unsure the nuts are tight enough, it says to have a dealer inspect them.
Lug wrench
The spare-tire steps tighten the nuts with the lug wrench in the order shown, after the vehicle is lowered. Do not use a power impact wrench on an antitheft nut.

Remove dirt and grime from the wheel, the hub, and the hub bolts with a cloth before the spare or a replacement wheel goes on.
Beveled edge inward. Do not oil them. Use the original nuts or metric nuts of the same configuration. Hold an antitheft key square to the nut and do not use an impact wrench.
Turn the lug wrench to lower the vehicle, then tighten in the order shown in the manual to 108-147 N·m (80-108 ft·lbf). If you are unsure, have a dealer inspect the nuts. Set the tire pressure afterward.
Cold pressures are on the tire pressure guide. The spare-tire steps say to check inflation pressure after the nuts are tight, including the spare.
The tightening-order figure is a drawing in the manual. The text says "in the order shown" and does not list a number sequence, so this page links the manual instead of inventing the order.

Metric wheel lug nut
The warning says to reinstall the same nuts or use metric nuts of the same configuration. A non-metric nut will not secure the wheel.
