Tire Pressure
The Certificatioflire label which is on the rear edge of
the driver's door shows the correct inflation pressures
for your tires, when they're cold. "Cold" means your
vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven
no more than
a
mile.
NOTICE:
Don't let anyone tell you that underinflation
or
overinflation is all right. It's not.
If
your tires
don't have enough air (underinflation) you can
get:
Too
much flexing
Too much heat
Tire overloading
Bad wear
Bad handling
Bad fuel economy.
If
your tires have too much air (overinflation),
you can get:
Unusual wear
Bad handling
Rough ride
Needless damage from road hazards.
When to Check
Check your tires once a month or more.
Don't forget your compact spare tire. It should be at
60 psi (420 P a ) .
6-35
