Consistent high-speed driving
Ford Motor Company recommends obeying
posted speed limits.
Driving too fast for conditions creates the
possibility of loss of vehicle control.
Driving at very high speeds for extended
periods of time may result in damage to
vehicle components.
In the event of continuous operation at high
speed, the cold air pressure in all tires must be
increased by 4 p.s.i. (28 kpa) when compared to
the inflation pressure shown on the tire decal
posted in the glove compartment. Under no
circumstances should you exceed maximum tire
inflation pressure which is molded on the tire
outer side wall.
Your vehicle has been equipped with proper
speed rated tires to meet its speed capabilities.
For further details, consult your Tire Warranty
Booklet provided with the vehicle in the glove
compartment.
Tire Rotation
Because your vehicle's front and rear tires
perform different jobs, they often wear
differently. To make sure your tires wear evenly
and last longer, rotate them as indicated in the
Maintenance Schedule and Record booklet.
Rotate the tires according to the following
diagram. Do not include the spare tire as part of
your rotation. If you notice that the tires wear
unevenly, have them checked.
