Instructions for checking tire inflation pressure
n
When checking tire inflation pressure, observe the following:
Check only when the tires are cold.
l
If your vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or has not been
driven for more than 1 mile or 1.5 km, you will get an accurate cold tire
inflation pressure reading.
Always use a tire pressure gauge.
l
It is difficult to judge if a tire is properly inflated based only on its appear-
ance.
It is normal for the tire inflation pressure to be higher after driving as
l
heat is generated in the tire. Do not reduce tire inflation pressure after
driving.
Never exceed the vehicle capacity weight.
l
Passengers and luggage weight should be placed so that the vehicle is
balanced.
WARNING
Proper inflation is critical to save tire performance
n
Keep your tires properly inflated.
If the tires are not properly inflated, the following conditions may occur
which could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury:
Excessive wear
l
Uneven wear
l
Poor handling
l
Possibility of blowouts resulting from overheated tires
l
Air leaking from between tire and wheel
l
Wheel deformation and/or tire damage
l
Greater possibility of tire damage while driving (due to road hazards,
l
expansion joints, sharp edges in the road, etc.)
NOTICE
When inspecting and adjusting tire inflation pressure
n
Be sure to put the tire valve caps back on.
If a valve cap is not installed, dirt or moisture may get into the valve and
cause an air leak, resulting in decreased tire inflation pressure.
