fabric.

Tire Rotation

Tires should be rotated every
12 000 km (7,500 mi). See
Maintenance Schedule on
page 11 3.
Tires are rotated to achieve a
uniform wear for all tires. The
first rotation is the most
important.
Any time unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as soon
as possible and check the wheel
alignment. Also check for
damaged tires or wheels. See
When It Is Time for New Tires
on page 10 59 and Wheel
Replacement on page 10 64.
I n f o r ma t i o n P r o v i d e d b y :
Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tires.
Do not include the spare tire in
the tire rotation.
Adjust the front and rear tires to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label after
the tires have been rotated. See
Tire Pressure on page 10 52
and Vehicle Load Limits on
page 9 16.
