CAUTION - Tire pressure
Always observe the  following:
•
Warm  tires  normally  exceed  rec-
ommended  cold  tire  pressures  by
to 41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not
Check  your  tires  once  a  month  or
more.
Also, check  the  tire pressure  of  the
spare tire.
•
Check tire  pressure  when the
tires  are   cold.  (After  vehicle
has  been  parked  for  at  least
three hours or hasn't been dri-
ven  more   than  1.6   km  (one
mile)sincestartup.)
Check  the   pressure   of  your
spare tire each time you check
the pressure of  other tires.
Never  overload  your  vehicle.
Be  careful  not  to  overload  a
vehicle  luggage   rack if  your
vehicleis  equipped  with one.

release  air   from  warm   tires  to
adjust the pressure or the tires will
be underinflated.
•
Be sure to reinstall the tire infla-
tion valve caps.  Without the valve
cap, dirt or moisture could get into
the valve core and cause air   leak-
age.  If   the  cap   have  been  lost,
install new one as soon as possible.
How to check
•
•
Use a good quality gage to check tire
pressure. You can not tell if your tires
are properly  inflated  simply by  look-
ing  at  them.  Radial  tires  may  look
properly  inflated  even  when  they're
underinflated.
Check  the   tire's  inflation   pressure
when  the   tires   are  cold.  -   "Cold"
means your  vehicle has  been sitting
for at  least three  hours or  driven no
more than 1.6  km (1 mile).
WARNING - Tire Inflation
Overinflation   or  underinflation
can  reduce   tire  life,  adversely
affect vehicle handling, and lead
tosudden  tire failure.This   could
result in loss of  vehicle control
and potentialinjury.
