VEHICLE CARE

Warning (Continued)

.

Tire overloading and
overheating which could
lead to a blowout.

.

Premature or

irregular wear.

.

Poor handling.

.

Reduced fuel economy.

Overinflated tires, or tires that
have too much air, can result in:

.

Unusual wear.

.

Poor handling.

.

Rough ride.

.

Needless damage from
road hazards.

The Tire and Loading Information
label on the vehicle indicates the
original equipment tires and the
correct cold tire inflation
pressures. The recommended
pressure is the minimum air

pressure needed to support the
vehicle's maximum load carrying
capacity. See

How the vehicle is loaded affects
vehicle handling and ride comfort.
Never load the vehicle with more
weight than it was designed to
carry.

When to Check

Check the pressure of the tires
once a month or more.

How to Check

Use a good quality pocket-type
gauge to check the tire pressure.
Proper tire inflation cannot be
determined by looking at the tire.
Check the tire inflation pressure
when the tires are cold, meaning
the vehicle has not been driven for
at least three hours or no more
than 1.6 km (1 mi).

Remove the valve cap from the
tire valve stem. Press the tire
gauge firmly onto the valve to get
the pressure measurement. If the
cold tire inflation pressure
matches the recommended
pressure on the Tire and Loading
Information label, no further
adjustment is necessary.

If the inflation pressure is low,
add air until the recommended
pressure is reached. If the
inflation pressure in high, press
on the metal stem in the center of
the tire valve to release air.
Re-check the tire pressure with
the tire gauge.

Put the valve caps back on the
valve stems to keep out dirt and
moisture and prevent leaks. Use
only valve caps designed for the
vehicle by GM. TPMS sensors
could be damaged and would not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
