Ride comfort and vehicle stability
The superior riding experience
built into your vehicle partly
depends on the correct tire pres-
sure. Too much pressure gives an
uncomfortable and jarring ride.
Too little pressure feels as if your
vehicle is slow to respond.
Unequal tire pressures can make
steering your vehicle uneven and
unpredictable.
The tire pressure for your vehicle
under normal driving conditions is
listed on the placard attached to the
driver's door sill.
(Refer to "Tire and loading informa-
tion placard" on page 11-3.)
The recommended inflation pres-
sures under normal driving condi-
tions should be used for the tires
listed below.

Tire pressures should be checked,
and adjusted if necessary, at least
once a month.
Pressures should be checked more
often whenever weather temperatures
change severely, because tire pres-
sures change with outdoor tempera-
tures. The pressures listed are always
"cold inflation pressure".
Cold inflation pressure is measured
after the vehicle has been parked for
at least three hours or is driven less
than 1 mile (1.6 km) after having
been parked for three hours.
Cold inflation pressure must not go
Rear

into the tire sidewall. After driving

several miles, your tire inflation pres-
kPa,

41 kPa) from the cold inflation pres-

sure. Do not let air out of the tires to
kPa,
get back to the specified cold pres-
35 psi
sure, or your tires will be too low.
Check your tires each time you
refuel. If one tire looks lower than
the others, check the pressure for all
of them.
You should also take the following
safety precautions:
Keep your tires inflated to the rec-
ommended pressures. (See the tire
and loading information placard
attached to the driver's door sill.)
Stay within the recommended
load limits.
