Maintenance
NOTE
S Warm tires normally exceed rec-
ommended pressures.
release air from warm tires to
adjust the pressure.
S Underinflation can cause reduced
fuel economy and poor sealing of
the tire bead, which will deform
the wheel and cause separation of
the tire from the rim.
S Overinflation can produce a harsh
ride and a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards.
S So keep your tire pressure at the
correct levels. If one frequently
needs inflating, have it inspected.

Overinflation or underinflation of
tires is dangerous. Adverse handling
or unexpected tire failure could
result in a serious accident. Always
inflate the tires to the correct pres-
sure (page 10-9)
t Tire inspection and maintenance
Inspect the tire treads, and remove stones,
nails, glass or other objects that may be
wedged in the tread grooves. Check for
holes or cuts that may permit air to leak
from the tire, and make the necessary
repairs.
Inspect the tire side walls for cuts, bruises
and other damage. If you suspect internal
damage to the tire, have it demounted and
checked. You may need to repair or
replace it.
