The tire pressu re will vary with tem peratu re by abou t
1
psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This means that
when the outsid e tem peratu re decreases, the tire pres-
sure will decrease. Tire pressu re shou ld alw ays be set
based on cold inflation tire pressu re. This is defined as
the tire pressu re after the vehicle has not been driven
for at least 3 hou rs, or driven less than 1 mile (1 km)
after a 3 hou r period . The cold tire inflation pressu re
must not exceed the maxim um inflation pressu re
