Timing Belt, Tires

Timing Belt
The timing belt and balancer belt

should normally be replaced at the
intervals shown in the maintenance
schedule.

Replace these belts at 60,000 miles

(U.S.) or 100,000 km (Canada) if you

regularly drive your car in one or
more of these conditions:

In very high temperatures

(over 110°F,43°C).

In very low temperatures

(under —20°F, — 29°C).

Tires

To safely operate your car, your tires

must be the proper type and size, in
good condition with adequate tread,
and correctly inflated. The following
pages give more detailed information
on how and when to check air
pressure, how to inspect your tires

for damage and wear, and what to do
when your tires need to be replaced.

Inflation
Keeping the tires properly inflated
provides the best combination of
handling, tread life and riding
comfort. Underinflated tires wear
unevenly, adversely affect handling
and fuel economy, and are more
likely to fail from being overheated.

Overinflated tires can make your car

ride more harshly, are more prone to

damage from road hazards, and wear

unevenly.

We recommend that you visually

check your tires every day. If you
think a tire might be low, check it
immediately with a tire gauge.

Maintenance

Using tires that are excessively

worn or improperly inflated can
cause a crash in which you can
be seriously hurt or killed.

Follow all instructions in this

owner's manual regarding tire
inflation and maintenance.
