MAINTENANCE
n Wear Indicators
The groove where the wear indicator is
located is 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) shallower than
elsewhere on the tire. If the tread has worn
so low that the indicator is exposed, replace
the tire. Worn out tires have poor traction on
wet roads.
Using tires that are excessively worn or improperly inflated can cause a crash in
which you can be seriously hurt or killed. Follow all instructions in the owner's
manual regarding tire inflation and maintenance.
n Tire and Loading Information Label
The label attached to the driver's doorjamb provides necessary tire and loading
information.

Example of a wear
indicator mark
1. The number of people your vehicle can carry.
2. The total weight your vehicle can carry. Do not exceed this weight.
3. The original tire sizes for front, rear, and spare.
4. The proper cold tire pressure for front, rear, and spare.
Tire and Wheel Replacement
n
Replace your tires with radials of the same size, load range, speed rating, and
maximum cold tires pressure rating (as shown on the tires' sidewall). Using tires
of a different size or construction can cause certain vehicle systems to work
incorrectly. It is best to replace all four tires at the same time. If that isn't
possible, replace the front or rear tires in pairs.
