Tyre Rotation - Cadillac 2013 Escalade Owner Manual M

Tyre Rotation

Tyres should be rotated at the
intervals specified in the
Maintenance Schedule. See
Scheduled Maintenance on
page 11 1.
Tyres are rotated to achieve a
uniform wear for all tyres. The
first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tyres as soon
as possible, check for proper
tyre inflation pressure, and
check for damaged tyres or
wheels. If the unusual wear
continues after the rotation,
check the wheel alignment. See
When It Is Time for New Tyres
on page 10 50 and Wheel
Replacement on page 10 53.
Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tyres.
Do not include the spare tyre in
the tyre rotation.
Adjust the front and rear tyres to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tyre and
Loading Information label after
the tyres have been rotated. See
Tyre Pressure on page 10 42
and Vehicle Load Limits on
page 9 14.
Vehicle Care
Reset the Tyre Pressure Monitor
System. See Tyre Pressure
Monitor Operation on
page 10 45.
Check that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See Wheel
Nut Torque under Capacities
and Specifications on
page 12 2.
WARNING
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident. When
changing a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where the
wheel attaches to the vehicle. In
an emergency, a cloth or a paper
towel can be used; however, use
a scraper or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.
