Tire care
For proper maintenance, safety, and
maximum fuel economy, you must
always maintain recommended tire
inflation pressures and stay within
the load limits and weight distribution
recommended for your vehicle.
Recommended cold tire inflation
pressures
All tire pressures (including the
spare) should be checked when the
tires are cold. "Cold Tires" means the
vehicle has not been driven for at
least three hours or driven less than
1.6 km (one mile).
Recommended pressures must be
maintained for the best ride, top vehi-
cle handling, and minimum tire wear.
For recommended inflation pressure,
refer to "Tire and wheels" in chapter
8.
All specifications (sizes and pres-
sures) can be found on a label
attached to the vehicle.
WARNING
Tire underinflation
Severe underinflation (70 kPa (10
psi) or more) can lead to severe
heat build-up, causing blowouts,
tread separation and other tire fail-
ures that can result in the loss of
vehicle control leading to severe
injury or death. This risk is much
higher on hot days and when driv-
