Tire Pressure Monitor System (Tpms); Maintenance Schedules - Dodge Dakota 2011 Owner's Manual

296 STARTING AND OPERATING
These effects can be reduced by timely rotation of tires.
The benefits of rotation are especially worthwhile with
aggressive tread designs such as those on all season type
tires. Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain
mud, snow and wet traction levels, and contribute to a
smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the "Maintenance Schedule" for the proper
maintenance intervals. More frequent rotation is permis-
sible if desired. The reasons for any rapid or unusual
wear should be corrected prior to rotation being per-
formed.
The suggested rotation method is the "forward cross"
shown in the following diagram. This rotation pattern
does not apply to some directional tires that must not be
reversed.

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn
the driver of a low tire pressure based on the vehicle

cated on the driver's side B-pillar).
