4. Replace the valve cap.

5. Repeat this procedure for each tire, including the spare.

Note:

Some spare tires require higher inflation pressure than the other

tires.

6. Visually inspect the tires to make sure there are no nails or other

objects embedded that could poke a hole in the tire and cause an air
leak.

7. Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges

or other irregularities.

Tire and wheel alignment

A bad jolt from hitting a curb or pothole can cause the front end of your
vehicle to become misaligned or damage to your tires. If your vehicle
seems to pull to one side, vibrate or shake when you’re driving, the
wheels may be out of alignment. Have a qualified technician at a
reputable repair facility check the wheel alignment periodically.

Wheel misalignment in the front or the rear can cause uneven and rapid
treadwear of your tires and should be corrected by a qualified technician
at a reputable repair facility. Front wheel drive (FWD) vehicles, and
those with independent front suspension require alignment of all four
wheels.

The tire should also be balanced periodically. An unbalanced tire and
wheel assembly may result in irregular tire wear.

NOTE:

When it is time to replace front tires with new ones, this is an

ideal time to perform an alignment. New tires should be balanced at the
time they are installed.

Tire rotation

Rotating your tires at the recommended interval (as indicated in the
Service Maintenance Guide that comes with your vehicle) will help your
tires wear more evenly providing better tire performance and longer tire
life. Unless otherwise specified, rotate the tires approximately every
8,000 km (5,000 miles).
