Checking tire inflation pressure
CAUTION
CAUTION - Tire pressure
Warm  tires   normally  exceed
recommended  cold  tire pres-
sures by  28 to  41 kPa  (4 to  6
psi).  Do  not release  air  from
warm tires  to adjust the  pres-
sure or the tires will be under-
inflated.
Be  sure  to   reinstall  the  tire
inflation  valve  caps.  Without
the valve cap, dirt or  moisture
could  get into  the  valve core
and  cause   air  leakage.   If  a
valve cap  is missing, install  a
new one as soon as possible.
Always observe the following:
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
driven more  than 1.6 km  (one
mile) since startup.)

How to check
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
vehicle is equipped with one.
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).
Worn, old tires can cause acci-
dents.  If  your  tread  is  badly
worn,  or   if  your   tires   have
been damaged, replace them.
WARNING - Tire Inflation
Overinflation  or   underinflation
can  reduce  tire  life,  adversely
affect   vehicle    handling,   and
lead to  sudden tire failure. This
could  result  in loss  of  vehicle
control and potential injury.
