Tire Pressures; Wheel And Wheel Trim Care - Chrysler 2010 Sebring User Manual

MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

TIRE PRESSURES

• Check the inflation pressure of each tire, including the spare tire, at least monthly
and inflate to the recommended pressure for your vehicle.
• The tire pressures recommended for your vehicle are found on the "Tire and
Loading Information" label located on the driver's side door opening.
NOTE: Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for more information on the life of
tires.
Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect
vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the
recommended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.
Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause accidents. Under-inflation is
the leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component
separation, or "blow out". Over-inflation reduces a tire's ability to cushion shock.
Objects on the road and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure.
Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your
vehicle. Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can
fail suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.

WHEEL AND WHEEL TRIM CARE

• All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels should
be cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corrosion.
• To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, use MOPAR
equivalent or select a nonabrasive, non-acidic cleaner.
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes. Do not use
oven cleaner. These products may damage the wheels protective finish. Avoid
automatic car washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage
the wheels protective finish. Only MOPAR
recommended.
