Vehicle Care
Danger (Continued)
If the tire looks as if it may
be underinflated, stand to
the side and check whether
the wheel assembly
appears normal by
comparing it to another
wheel assembly on the
vehicle.
Let the air out of the tire by
taking out the valve core.
If you have a way to put air
back in a tire, note that it is
good safety practice to let
the air out of both tires of a
dual assembly before taking
off the damaged tire and rim
assembly from the vehicle.
After letting out the air, take
off the tire and rim assembly
and install a spare tire and
rim assembly.
If your vehicle is equipped
with a differential lock
system or limited slip
differential (LSD), it might

start moving when the
engine power is transmitted
to the rear axle even when
one of the wheels on the
axle is raised clear of the
ground. Do not start the
engine with any rear wheel
in contact with the ground.
If you are not fully
experienced on the
procedures to follow, and/or
are not equipped with the
proper tools and equipment,
again, do not attempt to
raise the vehicle, or remove
or install the tire and wheel
assembly seek expert tire
services.
Do not put air back in a tire
that has been run flat, or is
seriously low on air, without
first having the tire taken off
the wheel and the tire
checked for damage.

Danger (Continued)
Note that taking off and
mounting tires on wheels
requires proper tools, safety
equipment and special
training. A person can be
severely injured or killed
and damage can result from
using the wrong service
methods. Truck tires and
wheels should be serviced
only by trained people using
the proper equipment.
Never add air to your tires
unless an accurate pressure
gauge is also used. When
putting air in a tire on the
vehicle, stand to the side
and use a clip-on chuck and
hose extension. In choosing
the right tire pressure, be
careful not to exceed the
maximum pressure
capability shown on the tire;
see the tire pressure charts
at the end of this manual.
