Checking tyre inflation
pressure
Keep your tyre inflation pressures at the
proper level.
The recommended cold tyre inflation pres-
sures and tyre sizes are given on page 283
in Section 8.
You should check the tyre inflation pressure
every two weeks, or at least once a month.
And do not forget the spare!
Incorrect tyre inflation pressure may waste
fuel, reduce the comfort of driving, reduce
tyre life and make your vehicle less safe to
drive.
If a tyre frequently needs pumping up, have
it checked by your Toyota dealer.
The following instructions for checking
tyre inflation pressure should be ob-
served:
The pressure should be checked only
D
when the tyres are cold. If your vehicle
has been parked for at least 3 hours and
has not been driven for more than 1.5 km
since, you will get an accurate cold tyre
inflation pressure reading.
Always use a tyre pressure gauge. The
D
appearance of a tyre can be misleading.
Besides, tyre inflation pressures that are
even just a few pounds off can degrade
ride and handling.
