check  tire  pressu  re.  Do  not  make   a  visu al judgem  ent
when  determ ining  prop er inflation.  Radial  tires may  look
prop erly  inflated  even  when  they  are und er-inflated  .
Check tire  pressu res more  often if subject  to a wide  range
of  outdoor    tem peratu res,  as  tire   pressu res  vary   with
tem peratu re changes.
Tire pressu res  change  by approxim ately  1 psi  (7 kPa) per
CAUTIO N!
12°F
(7°C) of air  tem peratu re change.   Keep this  in mind
when  checking  tire pressu re insid e a garage,  especially  in
the  Winter.
After   inspectin  g or   adjustin  g the   tire  pressu  re,  al-
ways  rein stall  the  valve  stem cap  (if equipped).    This
will   preven t  moistu  re  and   dirt   from   enterin g   the
valve  stem , which  could   damage  the  valve  stem .
Example:  If  garage   tem peratu re =  68°F  (20°C) and   the  5
outsid e  tem peratu re   =  32°F  (0°C)  then   the   cold   tire
inflation  pressu re  shou ld be  increased  by  3 psi (21  kPa),
which  equ als 1  psi  (7 kPa)  for every  12°F  (7°C) for  this
outsid e tem peratu re  cond ition.
Inflation   pressu res  specified  on  the  placard   are  alw ays
“cold  tire inflation  pressu re.”  Cold  tire inflation  pressu re
is defined   as  the  tire  pressu re  after  the  vehicle  has  not
been  driven  for at least  three  hou rs, or driven  less  than  1
mi  (1.6  km)   after  a  three   hou r  period .  The  cold   tire
inflation  pressu  re must   not  exceed  the  maxim um  infla-
tion  pressu re molded   into  the tire  sidewall.
Tire pressu re  may increase  from  2 to  6 psi (13 to  40 kPa)
during  operation.   DO  NOT  red uce this norm al  pressu re
build  up  or you r tire  pressu re  will be  too low.
