Tire Inflation Pressure

Inspect all tire pressures monthly 
(including the spare) when the tires are 
cold. Maintain recommended pressures 
for the best ride, top handling, and 
minimum tire wear.

Refer to the specification charts (page 10-
6).

Incorrect Tire Inflation:
Overinflation or underinflation of 
tires is dangerous. Adverse handling 
or unexpected tire failure could result 
in a serious accident. Always inflate 
the tires to the correct pressure (page 
10-6).

WARNING

NOTE

•

Warm tires normally exceed 
recommended pressures. Don’t 
release air from warm tires to adjust 
the pressure.

•

Underinflation can cause reduced 
fuel economy and poor sealing of 
the tire bead, which will deform the 
wheel and cause separation of tire 
from rim.

•

Overinflation can produce a harsh 
ride and a greater possibility of 
damage from road hazards.
Keep your tire pressure at the 
correct levels. If one frequently 
needs inflating, have it inspected.
