WARNING
When you have a tire gauge, remove
the valve cap and check the air pres-

recommended, slowly drive to the
nearest service station and inflate
the tire to the correct pressure.When
it is over-inflated, deflate the tire to
the proper pressure. Always close
the valve cap after checking or
adjusting a tire pressure. When the
cap is not closed, air may leak out
from the tire. When you lose a valve
cap, immediately buy a new one and
close the valve.

When a stud is damaged, it may
lose its ability to retain a wheel.
This may lead to loss of the
wheel and a collision, resulting
in a serious injury.
