Tire Pressure; Vehicle Maximum Load On The Tire; Vehicle Placard; When To Check - Chevrolet 2014 Cruze Owner's Manual

Load on an individual tire
due to curb weight, accessory
weight, occupant weight, and
cargo weight.
A label
permanently attached to a
vehicle showing the vehicle
capacity weight and the
original equipment tire size
and recommended inflation
pressure. See Tire and Loading
Information Label under
Tires need the correct amount
of air pressure to operate
effectively.
Neither tire underinflation nor
overinflation is good.
Underinflated tires, or tires
that do not have enough air,
can result in:
Tire overloading and
overheating which could
lead to a blowout.
Premature or
irregular wear.
.
Poor handling.
Reduced fuel economy.
Overinflated tires, or tires
that have too much air, can
result in:
Unusual wear.
Poor handling.
Rough ride.
Needless damage from
road hazards.
The Tire and Loading
Information label on the
vehicle indicates the original
equipment tires and the correct
cold tire inflation pressures. The
recommended pressure is the
minimum air pressure needed to
support the vehicle's maximum
load carrying capacity. See
.
How the vehicle is loaded
affects vehicle handling and ride
comfort. Never load the vehicle
with more weight than it was
designed to carry.
Check the tires once a month or
more. Do not forget the compact
spare, if the vehicle has one.
The cold compact spare tire
pressure should be at 420 kPa
(60 psi). See
