J Inspection and rotation
WARNING
D When replacing a tire, make sure you use only the same size,
construction brand, and load range as the original tires listed on
the tire placard. Using other sizes or construction may result in
severe mechanical damage to the drive train of your vehicle and
may affect ride, handling, braking, speedometer/odometer cal-
ibration, and clearance between the body and tires. It also may be
dangerous and lead to loss of vehicle control.
D Do not use a combination of radial, belted bias or bias tires
since it may cause dangerous handling characteristics and lead
to an accident.
D Do not let air out of warm tires to adjust pressure. Doing so
will result in low tire pressure.
The tires should be checked frequently for proper tire pressure, wear,
and cuts.
B Checking the tire pressure
For the best balance between fuel economy, tire life, ride comfort, and
handling, tire pressure should be maintained in accordance with
