SERVICING YOUR TIRES
Checking the tire pressure
•
Use an accurate tire pressure
gauge.
•
Check the tire pressure when
tires are cold, after the vehicle has
been parked for at least one hour or
has been driven less than 5 km
(3 miles).
•
Adjust tire pressure to
recommended specifications found
on the label located on the rear
most driverĆside door jamb.
Improperly inflated tires
can affect vehicle handling
and can fail suddenly, possibly
resulting in loss of vehicle control.
Tire rotation
Because your vehicle's tires perform
different jobs, they often wear
differently. To make sure your tires
wear evenly and last longer, rotate
them as indicated in the Scheduled
Maintenance Guide". If you notice
that the tires wear unevenly, have
them checked.
