should first check with your Province Depart-
ment of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal

tion. Low tire inflation pressures will result in
overheating and possible failure of the tires.

result in reduced traction or tire failure.
NOTE:
Neverexceedthemaximumtireinflationpres-
sure shown on the tires.
CAUTION
Donotdoanytowingwithyourcarduringits
first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow
the engine to properly break in. Failure to
heed this caution may result in serious en-
gine or transaxle damage.
