what are the torque settings for a nissan micra 1235cc 1990 cylinder head?

We have tried to repair the head gasket but not sure of the torque settings for the micra please ?

There ae 2 stages involved for the Cylinder head bolts tightening sequence.

The first stage

25 to 29 lbf ft or 3.5 to 4.0 kgf m

The second stage

43 to 47 lbf or 6.0 to 6.5 kgf m

Both the same for 1.0L and 1.2L models

A Haynes manual is a must as it shows the tightening sequence in the correct order
