Warning!

the ability to steer or brake the vehicle.

ued driving with a flat tire will cause exces-
sive heat build-up and possibly a fire.

Possible cause/consequence
The pressure is too low in one or more
tires.
One or more tires are deflating.
The tire pressure in one or more tires
is already below the minimum value.
G
Warning!
Follow recommend tire inflation pressures.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires
wear excessively and/or unevenly, adverse-
ly affect handling and fuel economy, and are
more likely to fail from being overheated.
Possible solution
Check and correct tire inflation pressure as
required ( page 288).
Carefully bring the vehicle to a halt, avoiding
abrupt steering and braking maneuvers.
If necessary, change the wheel ( page 389).

G Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated tires
can adversely affect handling and ride com-
fort, wear unevenly, increase stopping dis-
tance, and result in sudden deflation
(blowout) because they are more likely to
become punctured or damaged by road de-
bris, potholes etc.
